Analysis

What drives eviction risk in San Mateo

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Against the San Mateo County average of 7.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Running hot, local political climate reads 8.1/10. At $3,501 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of San Mateo commands.

On the national scale it lands near the 94th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 20% 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.

Social vulnerability reads 6.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $150,987.

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.
