Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cambodia Town

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. 86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Food insecurity runs 35.2% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 28.2% against 14.2% nationally. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. The poverty rate is 19%, 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 9.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
