Olivenhain Eviction Risk: Moderate

4 census tracts · pop 15,907 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.5

Olivenhain takes in 4 census tracts of Encinitas, CA and houses 15,907 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 55% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Encinitas rate of 30.5%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10. The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.2/10. Food insecurity affects 6.9% of adults, 10.9 points below the national rate. SNAP participation is 6.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Encinitas, it ranks #5 by risk, the lower third. Only 15% 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. The closest comparables inside the same city are Cardiff-by-the-Sea and Leucadia.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.1 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $2,979, close to the Encinitas average.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $161,312.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
