Cragmont Eviction Risk: Elevated , Berkeley

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. SNAP participation runs 3.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 3.9% against 14.2% nationally. At $2,306 a month, rents run 8% over what the rest of Berkeley commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

Nationally it ranks #10,320 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10.

Against average income of $244,276, annual rent is just 11%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
