Little Arabia is a 11-tract neighborhood of Anaheim, CA and houses 66,914 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 8/10, High tier. Against a Anaheim baseline of 35.9%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 6.7 to 8.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.9/10.
Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10. Average gross rent is $2,004, 8% below the Anaheim average of $2,175.
That places it #3 of 7 neighborhoods in Anaheim. The closest comparables inside the same city are Dresden Palms and Anaheim Resort District. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $83,139. 57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
