Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fairgrounds

It sits 2.2 points above the Sacramento County average of 7.1. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.3/10.

61% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Sacramento County average of 50.2%. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,399, 21% below the Sacramento average. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

Nationally it ranks #3,082 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
