River Park maps to a single census tract in Arden-Arcade, CA and houses 2,171 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 8.8/10, in the High tier. Cost burden runs 52% against 35.9% citywide, putting River Park 15.7% over its own city.
94% 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. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.
The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.8/10.
The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. SNAP participation is 23.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. That places it #3 of 6 neighborhoods in Arden-Arcade.
The closest comparables inside the same city are La Villita and Sierra Oaks. Average gross rent runs $1,498, close to the Arden-Arcade average.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $61,125.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 8.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
