Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lavender Heights

Average gross rent is $884, 50% below the Sacramento average. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10.

It sits 2.2 points above the Sacramento County average of 7.1. 81% 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 poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. Against Sacramento County at 50.2%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. On the national scale it lands near the 96th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.6/10.

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