Almonte is a 4-tract neighborhood of Tamalpais-Homestead Valley, CA and houses 21,371 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.9/10, in the Moderate tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
Against a Tamalpais-Homestead Valley baseline of 25.1%, around a third of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.4 to 6.8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Average gross rent is $2,914, 17% below the Tamalpais-Homestead Valley average of $3,501. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 3.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Against average income of $204,094, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.9 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
