1 census tracts · pop 5,705 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7/10 · range 7–7

The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.7/10.

Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Eureka, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are South California and The West Side.
