Fresno Eviction Risk: High

63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Fresno County average of 49.3%. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Against the Fresno County average of 6.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Housing insecurity runs 26.8% against 14.2% nationally.

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 7.4/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 7/10.

Average gross rent is $1,234, 13% below the Fresno average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Fresno. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 93% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
