Encanto Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 7,795 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.7/10 · range 6.8–8.6

Encanto takes in 2 census tracts of Lemon Grove, CA and houses 7,795 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.7/10, Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 66% against 36.1% citywide, putting Encanto 29.5% over its own city.

What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 6.8 to 8.6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.9/10.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. At $2,183 a month, rents sit 15% over what the rest of Lemon Grove commands.

Only 25% 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. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $101,107.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
