North Laguna Hills is a 2-tract quarter of Laguna Hills, CA and houses 7,484 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.9/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 44%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs roughly two in three against 34.2% citywide, putting North Laguna Hills 31.5% over its own city. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 8.8/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. At $2,206 a month, rents sit 19% under what the rest of Laguna Hills commands.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.6/10. Food insecurity affects 7.5% of adults, 10.3 points below the national rate. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.9/10.
Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 7.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
