The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $2,002 a month, rents sit 13% over what the rest of Sacramento commands. Among the 34 mapped neighborhoods of Sacramento, it ranks #11 by risk, the upper third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Northgate and Carleton Tract. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
