· range 5.2–5.2
Los Patrones maps to a single census tract in Rancho Mission Viejo, CA, population 7,773. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 48%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
76% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Rancho Mission Viejo rate of 38.9%. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10.
Food insecurity affects 7.4% of adults, 10.4 points below the national rate. Average gross rent is $3,084, 12% below the Rancho Mission Viejo average of $3,501.
4.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Only 28% 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.
Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $178,250.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
