Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mill Valley

The main counterweight is court filing pressure at 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.5/10. SNAP participation runs 4.9% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 83% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10. Against average income of $211,927, annual rent is just 17%.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Marin County average of 7.3 closely.

Average gross rent is $3,039, close to the Mill Valley average. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
