Bungalow Heaven Eviction Risk: High , Pasadena

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 81% 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.

Set annual rent against average income of $74,679 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.2/10. At $2,055 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Pasadena commands.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. Nationally it ranks #4,119 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

56% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely.

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.
