Analysis

What drives eviction risk in American Gold Star Manor

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. SNAP participation runs 35.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 71% 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, economic stress reads 8.7/10. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

Housing insecurity runs 27.1% against 14.2% nationally. At $1,518 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Long Beach commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. Social vulnerability reads 9.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
