Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Adams Square

The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. This is renter territory: 92% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average income of $61,250 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 9/10. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.7/10. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

Average gross rent is $2,059, close to the Glendale average.
