Analysis

What drives eviction risk in The Heights at Porter Ranch

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,501, 81% above the Los Angeles average. Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. The voucher gap is 33.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $131,014, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 94th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
