Adams Point Eviction Risk: High

4 census tracts · pop 12,920 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.8/10 · range 9.1–9.9

Adams Point is a 4-tract neighborhood of Oakland, CA, population 12,920. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.8/10, High tier. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. This is a renter market: 85% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. Against a Oakland baseline of 30.6%, 40% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. 5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Average gross rent is $2,147, 8% above the Oakland average of $1,979. Among the 45 mapped neighborhoods of Oakland, it ranks #23 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Hoover-Foster and Civic Center score within a fraction of it.

Its 4 tracts score within 0.8 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $97,877.
