Seaside Eviction Risk: Elevated

29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 64% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Monterey County average of 51.7%. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.9/10.

72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10.

Average gross rent is $2,807, 17% above the Seaside average. It sits 0.7 points above the Monterey County average of 7.2. Nationally it ranks #8,653 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $110,328.

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