Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lair Port
What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. 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.
Set annual rent against average income of $49,173 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Housing insecurity runs 28.5% against 14.2% nationally.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 24.8% against 11.3% nationally.
Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened. Average gross rent is $1,336, 12% below the Lennox average.
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 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.4/10.
