Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Virgil Village

On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 82% 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.

Cost burden runs 65% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.6/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,802, close to the Los Angeles average. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $72,574.

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.
