Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Newark

It sits 2.4 points below the Alameda County average of 7.8. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.3/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. SNAP participation runs 6.2% against 15.2% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $205,000, annual rent is just 16%.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.1 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
