Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cambodia Town

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. 71% 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.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. Cost burden runs 63% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.6/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,821, close to the Long Beach average. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $69,195.
