Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Venice Canal Historic District

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 48% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Food insecurity runs 8.6% against 17.8% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.1% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $119,728.
