Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cambodia Town

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

SNAP participation runs 35.2% against 15.2% nationally. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $54,132 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 29.0% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $1,637, 13% below the Long Beach average.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
