Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fruitvale

63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Alameda County average of 45.5%. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

Running hot, local political climate reads 9.7/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Against the Alameda County average of 7.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.1 points.

This is renter territory: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average income of $67,373 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

SNAP participation runs 29.5% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Housing insecurity runs 23.9% against 14.2% nationally. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Oakland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.6/10.
