Browning is a 5-tract suburb of Tustin, CA, population 20,501. Scored across those inputs it reaches 8.1/10, placing it in the High tier. Cost burden runs 57% against 35.7% citywide, putting Browning 21.4% over its own city.
Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 7.1 to 8.9, a 1.8-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.6/10.
At $2,274 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of Tustin commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $93,217.
59% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 8.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
