Seagate maps to a single census tract in Carlsbad, CA, population 4,654. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.3/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Carlsbad baseline of 34.4%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10.
At $3,501 a month, rents sit 25% over what the rest of Carlsbad commands. The voucher gap is 21.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.5/10. 3.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. SNAP participation is 6.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
That places it #4 of 13 neighborhoods in Carlsbad. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $132,299. 35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 6.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
