Clearlake Park spans 3 census tracts of Clearlake, CA and houses 8,937 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 8.3/10, in the High tier. The severe-burden share is 40%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
64% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Clearlake rate of 45.4%. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.1/10. On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.9/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. SNAP participation is 28.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 7.6 to 8.7, a 1.1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The filing record is not thin: 141 evictions logged in this tract.
Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 5.2% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 5.0% in 2014 against a 5.2% peak.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,214, close to the Clearlake average.
Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $46,512. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
