ZIP code 90026 in Los Angeles County, California carries a composite property-distress score of 32/100 — a moderate reading on DLRadar's deterministic public-record index.

Structural exposure scores 69 and live distress 8 on the 0–100 scale.

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values held roughly flat over the trailing year, and 5% higher over three years (phase confidence 12/100). Near a top, distress surfaces unevenly, so parcel screening beats headline strength.

The poverty rate is 16.6% — high, a tax-stress and distress correlate. Rent burden reaches 40% of tenant households. Median household income is $85,835, near the U.S. median near $78,000. Around 47% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher. The vacancy rate is 7.6%. The tenure split is 25% owner-occupied to 75% rented. About 62,902 people live here, median age 37. Home values center near $1,199,500, an affordability ratio of 13.3× — stretched. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 53/100. There are about 29,274 housing units across 90026.

Overall, 90026 shows a mixed profile — neither uniformly stressed nor insulated — so opportunity is property-specific. There is no property file for 90026 at the moment; the composite and its components are still built from verifiable public records.

The 90026 read uses the identical public-record model applied coast to coast, which means its 32/100 score means exactly what it means anywhere else, and 90026 stays directly comparable to neighboring ZIPs and the rest of Los Angeles County, California. Where the public record is thin for 90026, the field stays empty rather than modeled, and fills in as new documents post.

Behind 90026's composite sit distinct signals (foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, lender and structural), each scored on its own before rolling up, so two ZIPs with the same total can describe very different situations on the ground. For a buyer, 90026 is one row in a larger workflow: confirm the score, pull the distressed parcels behind it, then move from signal to funded, closed acquisition through DLRadar.
