Keystone Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,805 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.6/10 · range 5.6–5.6

Keystone maps to a single census tract in Carson, CA and houses 4,805 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.6/10, Moderate tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 30% of renter households. The severe-burden share is 12%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. That places it #4 of 4 neighborhoods in Carson.

Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Avalon Village and Lincoln Village score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 5.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
