What drives eviction risk in Walker

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $50,653, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

On the high side, housing-court posture reads 8.7/10. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
