Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Kelly Gulch
Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 73% of renters here are cost-burdened. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.6 points.
What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10. The voucher gap is 33.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the high side, supply constraint reads 8.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 2.1/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 3.8% against 11.3% nationally. SNAP participation runs 8.2% against 15.2% nationally.
On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 4.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
