Analysis
What drives eviction risk in South El Monte
Food insecurity runs 45.7% against 17.8% nationally. The dominant input is economic stress at 9.4/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.2/10.
The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $65,213, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 27.1% against 11.3% nationally. At $2,063 a month, rents run 18% over what the rest of South El Monte commands.
It sits 1.0 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
