American Gold Star Manor Eviction Risk: High

10 census tracts · pop 42,319 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.1/10 · range 6.7–9.9

American Gold Star Manor is a 10-tract neighborhood of Long Beach, CA, population 42,319. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 9.1/10, in the High tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Long Beach rate of 32.8%.

Scores across the 10 constituent tracts range from 6.7 to 9.9. A 3.2-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10.

25% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.4/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. The poverty rate is 16%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. At $1,629 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of Long Beach commands.

That places it #4 of 9 neighborhoods in Long Beach. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $86,328. 45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 3.2 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.
