· range 8.7–9.9
Duboce Triangle takes in 14 census tracts of San Francisco, CA and houses 44,330 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 9.4/10, in the High tier. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.
On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 10/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 10/10. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
16% 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. The 14 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8.7 to 9.9, a 1.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
Cost burden runs 30% against 25.1% citywide, putting Duboce Triangle 4.8% over its own city. Among the 53 mapped neighborhoods of San Francisco, it ranks #28 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Telegraph Hill and Polk Gulch score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $174,024, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $2,421, close to the San Francisco average.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 9.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
