Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 32.7% against 14.2% nationally.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

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. Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 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.
