Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenfield
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. 70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, economic stress reads 2/10.
Food insecurity runs 30.2% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 24.8% against 14.2% nationally.
Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.4/10. That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
It tracks the Kern County average of 6.4 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
