Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Montebello

Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 74% of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $76,780, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.4/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 2/10.

Average gross rent is $2,067, 13% above the Montebello average. It sits 0.7 points below 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 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 8.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
