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. 84% 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 41% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. At $2,122 a month, rents run 10% over 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. That is riskier than roughly 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $112,131.
