Walnut Park Eviction Risk: High , Huntington Park

This is renter territory: 87% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Adults with no health insurance runs 31.5% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $44,131 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.9/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 17.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. At $1,345 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Huntington Park commands.

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. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 10/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
