What drives eviction risk in Downey
77% 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. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.9/10.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened. Housing insecurity runs 22.2% against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity runs 25.8% against 17.8% nationally. 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. On the national scale it lands near the 93rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.9/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
