Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Saint James Park

Set annual rent against average income of $31,815 and the ratio lands at 62%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

On the high side, economic stress reads 10/10. SNAP participation runs 37.8% against 15.2% nationally.

This is renter territory: 95% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The poverty rate is 41%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 37.8% against 17.8% nationally. roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Average gross rent is $1,654, 14% below the Los Angeles average.

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

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.
