Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Albany Hill

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.8/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.1/10.

It sits 1.2 points below the Alameda County average of 7.8. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Oakland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.6/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
