Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Decoto

It sits 2.4 points below the Alameda County average of 7.8. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 30.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Average gross rent is $3,501, 29% above the Union City average. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.3/10.

On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. SNAP participation runs 6.2% against 15.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.4% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10.

Against average income of $250,001, annual rent is just 17%.

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.
