Monterey Eviction Risk: Elevated

Severe burden reaches 32%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.2/10.

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.6/10. At $1,860 a month, rents run 21% under what the rest of Monterey commands. Food insecurity runs 6.9% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally. Against Monterey County at 51.7%, 47% of renters here are cost-burdened. It sits 0.8 points below the Monterey County average of 7.2.

That is riskier than roughly 81% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $147,353, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
