Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fresno

71% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Fresno County average of 49.3%. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.6/10.

The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Housing insecurity runs 34.4% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Fresno County average of 6.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.3/10.

At $1,103 a month, rents run 22% under what the rest of Fresno commands. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 7/10.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 93rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.8/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.
