Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Royal Palms

Set annual rent against average income of $48,571 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Cost burden runs roughly two in three here against 53.8% across Riverside County.

SNAP participation runs 32.7% against 15.2% nationally. 70% 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.

The clearest offset is supply constraint at 2/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 24.7% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Riverside County average of 6.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. On the national scale it lands near the 87th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,623, close to the Cathedral City average.
