Walnut Park Eviction Risk: High , Huntington Park

Severe burden reaches 31%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 28.3% against 11.3% nationally.

72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 64% of renters here are cost-burdened. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. At $1,336 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of South Gate 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. That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
