Analysis

What drives eviction risk in City Terrace

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Food insecurity runs 39.8% against 17.8% nationally. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.1/10.

Housing insecurity runs 31.7% against 14.2% nationally. 73% 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.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 50% of renters here are cost-burdened.

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. On the national scale it lands near the 95th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely.

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