Morningside Park is a 5-tract quarter of Inglewood, CA and houses 14,239 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 8.5/10, in the High tier. 61% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Inglewood rate of 35.5%.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 7.8 to 9.8, a 2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2/10.
SNAP participation is 26.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 22.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Inglewood, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,848, close to the Inglewood average. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $86,027.
56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
