Robertson Ranch Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,815 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 5.8–5.8

Robertson Ranch is a one-tract neighborhood of Carlsbad, CA and houses 4,815 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.8/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Carlsbad baseline of 34.4%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10.

17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.

Food insecurity affects 6.8% of adults, 11.0 points below the national rate. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $2,430, 13% below the Carlsbad average of $2,808.

That places it #7 of 13 neighborhoods in Carlsbad. Only 21% 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 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $145,188.

One tract means one number: 5.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
