Sherman Oaks Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

85% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. At $2,368 a month, rents run 23% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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.

That is riskier than roughly 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. about half of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $101,705.
