What drives eviction risk in Thai Town
100% 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. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10.
Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $64,679 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.
On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,873, close to the Los Angeles average.
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.
