Natomas Creek Eviction Risk: Elevated

3 census tracts · pop 14,146 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.8/10 · range 6.5–7.8

Natomas Creek is a 3-tract neighborhood of Sacramento, CA and houses 14,146 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.8/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Against a Sacramento baseline of 32.8%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.4/10. At $2,304 a month, rents sit 30% over what the rest of Sacramento commands.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 8.5/10.

Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 6.5 to 7.8. A 1.3-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Among the 34 mapped neighborhoods of Sacramento, it ranks #33 by risk, the lower third. Only 26% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $125,900.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.3 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.
