North Long Beach Eviction Risk: High

Food insecurity runs 53.8% against 17.8% nationally. 98% 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. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 26.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.6/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

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. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
