Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. 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.

Nationally it ranks #9,433 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $122,500.

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.
