Village Square maps to a single census tract in Pleasant Hill, CA and houses 2,413 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.8/10, Elevated tier. 64% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Pleasant Hill rate of 34.9%.
37% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.7/10.
67% 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. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.
Average gross rent is $2,107, 17% below the Pleasant Hill average of $2,533. Food insecurity affects 9.6% of adults, 8.2 points below the national rate.
Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Pleasant Hill, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Brookview Park and Hillsdale score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $103,125.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
