Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cambodia Town

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. Cost burden runs 67% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. Set annual rent against average income of $51,444 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

This is renter territory: 80% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. Food insecurity runs 34.9% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Housing insecurity runs 26.0% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,644, 12% below the Long Beach average.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
