ED1 Units by Community Plan Area

Are you curious what ED1 Projects look like? We’ve broken down ED1 unit mix and affordability levels by Community Plan Area (CPA).
Less than 0.1% of units in four of the top 5 CPAs are designated for ELI
The majority of projects have over 80% of units as studios and 1-bedroom apartments
Will the rent for moderate-income units be higher than the median lease price in some areas? The 2023 Area Median Income (AMI) for LA County is $98,200.
