Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Newark

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, local political climate reads 8.3/10.

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.1/10.

Cost burden runs 41% here against 45.5% across Alameda County. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.1 points cooler.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $2,732, close to the Newark average. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $160,398.

51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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