Marina Pacifica Eviction Risk: Elevated

6 census tracts · pop 14,154 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.8/10 · range 7.7–9.1

Marina Pacifica takes in 6 census tracts of Long Beach, CA and houses 14,154 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.8/10, Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 47% against 32.8% citywide, putting Marina Pacifica 14.0% over its own city.

At $2,588 a month, rents sit 38% over what the rest of Long Beach commands. 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 economic stress, at 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 7.7 to 9.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

3.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. That places it #7 of 9 neighborhoods in Long Beach.

Only 27% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $122,233.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
