Against a Oakland baseline of 30.6%, 39% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.6 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Severe burden reaches 15%.

Food insecurity affects 8.0% of adults, 9.8 points below the national rate. 3.9% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $2,210 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of Oakland commands.

31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 9.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
