Foster City Eviction Risk: Elevated

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.1/10.

Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Housing insecurity runs 5.6% against 14.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.2% against 11.3% nationally.

On the national scale it lands near the 81st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the San Mateo County average of 7.0 closely.

Average gross rent is $3,459, close to the Foster City average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
