Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Oroville
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 9.1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Oroville, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Butte County average of 5.9 and above the California statewide average of 6.1. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 83 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 7.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 7.3% of renter households in 2014.
In CDC survey modeling, about 21.9% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 14.3% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
