Headline filing and employer counts use certified H-1B records. The below-prevailing share uses filings with offered wage data as its denominator. Offered, prevailing and BLS averages use independently available values; their populations can differ. The BLS reference averages national occupation medians linked to certified filings, using each occupation's latest available year. It is not a ZIP-wide market median. The employer list includes all LCA outcomes and visa classes; quality-flagged rows are excluded.

Σ workers×(1+wage_gap) + Σ WARN layoffs. The 1.0 base rate per certified H-1B worker request is a site model assumption. Wage gap multiplier = (BLS median − offered wage) / BLS median, applied only to filings offering less than the BLS median. Related research provides context, not validation of these exact coefficients. This is a modeled estimate, not a count of actual displacements. WARN layoff counts are government-reported.
Exposure method v1.2 · This is a modeled worker-equivalent count.
Modeled consequence estimates
Conditional impacts associated with modeled displacement
These are conditional population estimates scaled from ZIP 90504's current modeled displacement count. They are not observed outcomes, a prediction about any person, or evidence that this entity caused displacement.

Excess deaths over 20 years

Range: 7.11 to 31.62
20-year reference scenario: high-seniority male displacement effect. This is not an expected count for an unknown population.

- 18.1524809246
- No sustained excess from year 7 (deaths)

Declared structural comparison; not a confidence interval or a model probability.
Baseline population: US prime-age men (45-54).
Child lifetime earnings lost
Illustrative reference calculation · population applicability is not established
$302.3M
Range: $78.5M to $510.3M
Canadian father–son firm-closure effect, applied to a US male lifetime-earnings baseline in 2024 dollars. The reference result uses 2 children per worker.
Baseline population: US male median lifetime earnings.
The mortality effect comes from a high-seniority male study cohort. Treat the count as a reference scenario unless the population matches. A mixed population needs a reviewed transport rule.
The range is the engine's parameter-support envelope: it varies declared parameters only and adds none of the exposure input's uncertainty.
The math, limits, and citations
Illustrative reference calculation scaled by the supplied worker-equivalent exposure. Two children per worker; 20-year mortality follow-up. This does not establish that an entity caused these outcomes.

Questions about the data & methods
How many H-1B filings are in ZIP 90504, CA?
356 H-1B labor condition applications requesting 428 workers have been filed in ZIP 90504, CA, per Department of Labor disclosure records.
How many employers have H-1B filings in ZIP 90504, CA?
99 distinct employers have filed H-1B labor condition applications in ZIP 90504, CA. The employer list on this page is ranked by filings and wage impact.
What worker-equivalent exposure does the displacement model estimate for ZIP 90504, CA?
The model estimates 631 worker-equivalents of displacement exposure in ZIP 90504, CA: one per requested worker on a certified H-1B filing, raised where the offered wage sits below the occupation's BLS median, plus government-reported WARN layoffs matched to filings. This is a modeled exposure estimate, not a count of documented job losses; the formula is on the About page.
What is the median H-1B wage in ZIP 90504, CA?
$107,689 per year is the median wage offered on H-1B labor condition applications filed for work in ZIP 90504, CA. The wage-distribution chart on this page shows the spread around that median.
Who files the most H-1B filings in ZIP 90504, CA?
Garrett Transportation I Inc. leads with 60 filings, about 17% of all ZIP 90504, CA filings. Its dossier page carries the full filing, wage, and layoff history.
What share of ZIP 90504, CA H-1B filings does DOL deny?
DOL disclosure records show 345 certified, 7 denied, 4 withdrawn of 356 labor condition applications with reported outcomes in ZIP 90504, CA. The denial share is 2% across the reported outcomes.
How many WARN layoff notices has ZIP 90504, CA recorded?
1 Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notice. Where a layoff employer then filed H-1B labor condition applications in the same window, the pair is recorded as a displacement event with an evidence score.
When did H-1B use peak in ZIP 90504, CA?
