Broadway Auto Row Eviction Risk: High

1 census tracts · pop 3,145 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.7/10 · range 9.7–9.7

Broadway Auto Row maps to a single census tract in Oakland, CA, population 3,145. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.7/10, High tier. Against a Oakland baseline of 30.6%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. 4.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Food insecurity affects 8.7% of adults, 9.1 points below the national rate. Average gross rent is $2,145, 8% above the Oakland average of $1,979. That places it #24 of 45 neighborhoods in Oakland.

For a like-for-like read, Grand Lake and Cleveland Heights score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $104,919.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 9.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
