Brentwood Village Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

At $3,038 a month, rents run 57% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 39% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 79% 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. Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

SNAP participation runs 4.0% against 15.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 15.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 2.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

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 #5,730 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

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