Arlington spans 3 census tracts of Riverside, CA and houses 12,905 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.8/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Riverside baseline of 34.0%, 52% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Set annual rent against average household income of $65,522 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.7/10.
SNAP participation is 26.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
18.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $1,779 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of Riverside commands.
That places it #4 of 30 neighborhoods in Riverside. For a like-for-like read, Eastside and University score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. The 3 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 7.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
