Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Atascadero
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.5/10. 42% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the San Luis Obispo County average of 51.5%.
It sits 1.4 points below the San Luis Obispo County average of 6.5. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.8/10. Average gross rent is $2,205, 19% above the Atascadero average.
Housing insecurity runs 6.5% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
