Egger Highlands Eviction Risk: High

10 census tracts · pop 47,987 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.4/10 · range 8–9.9

Egger Highlands takes in 10 census tracts of Imperial Beach, CA and houses 47,987 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 9.4/10, in the High tier. Against a Imperial Beach baseline of 33.8%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.7/10.

The 10 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8 to 9.9, a 1.9-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.2/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 16%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

SNAP participation is 23.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Average gross rent runs $1,901, close to the Imperial Beach average. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $72,475.

63% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.9 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.
