Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Downtown Culver City

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

83% 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. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Average gross rent is $2,373, 23% above the Los Angeles average.

49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.9% 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 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 #4,622 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

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