Rincon Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 6,587 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7/10 · range 4.9–7.7

Rincon is a 2-tract neighborhood of La Quinta, CA and houses 6,587 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Average gross rent is $783, 56% below the La Quinta average of $1,785.

Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 4.9 to 7.7. A 2.8-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.9/10.

11% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. Cost burden runs 37% against 33.6% citywide, putting Rincon 3.5% over its own city.

Against average income of $91,501, annual rent is only 10%, a wide affordability cushion. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.8 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
