Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cambodia Town

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. It sits 1.2 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. 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.

That is riskier than roughly 97% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.1 points hotter.
