## What should a renter check in Tujunga?

- Rent level. The ACS median gross rent is $1,874 a month across renter-occupied homes. It is an estimate for all renters, not an asking rent for any listing.
- Before you sign. Ask about lease length, the security deposit, which utilities are included, parking, pet terms and whether renters insurance is required.
- Hazard information. Zone shares describe the area, not one property: 53.0 percent inside a CAL FIRE Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (SRA 2007, LRA 2011) and 0.6 percent inside a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. Confirm the zones for a specific parcel during due diligence. Ask the landlord about smoke alarms, evacuation routes and alert sign-ups for the address.
- Getting around. 68.1 percent of workers drive alone and 2.5 percent take public transit (Census ACS 5-year). Check parking and the route to your usual destinations.
