Visitacion Valley takes in 6 census tracts of San Francisco, CA and houses 18,564 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 9.6/10, in the High tier. 49% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the San Francisco rate of 25.1%.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 10/10.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Average gross rent is $2,159, 13% below the San Francisco average of $2,476.
Food insecurity affects 25.8% of adults, 8.0 points above the national rate. That places it #21 of 53 neighborhoods in San Francisco. At 28% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Ingleside Terraces and Potrero Terrace. The 6 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.6 points apart at the extremes.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $104,158.
With little internal variation, 9.6/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
