Saddleback View maps to a single census tract in Santa Ana, CA, population 3,837. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.5/10, High tier. Against a Santa Ana baseline of 31.9%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1/10. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Food insecurity affects 34.6% of adults, 16.8 points above the national rate. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.
On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 8/10. SNAP participation is 28.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. At $1,691 a month, rents sit 19% under what the rest of Santa Ana commands.
That places it #6 of 18 neighborhoods in Santa Ana. The closest comparables inside the same city are Cornerstone Village and Pacific Park.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $85,156.
One tract means one number: 9.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
