On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 39% of average household income of $50,995, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. around two-thirds of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. SNAP participation runs 27.6% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 29.0% against 17.8% nationally.

The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $1,669 a month, rents run 14% under 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.

Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
