Bixby Knolls takes in 6 census tracts of Long Beach, CA and houses 27,261 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.4/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs about half against 32.8% citywide, putting Bixby Knolls 16.6% over its own city.
The 6 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.5 to 9, a 3.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 8.6/10. 21% 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.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.8/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.9/10.
At $1,997 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of Long Beach commands. Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Long Beach, it ranks #10 by risk, the lower third. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $109,365.
41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
