Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Leonidas
The score leans hardest on regional political climate at 8.4/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 194 filings here across 8 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2009, when 8.9% of renter households were served. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
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. In a typical year about 5.4% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4/10. Statewide the LA average is 4.4, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.
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.
