Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sunland

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

Cost burden runs 58% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. At $2,192 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

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. That is riskier than roughly 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $100,893.

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.
