Half Moon Bay Eviction Risk: Elevated

The clearest offset is court filing pressure at 1.4/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.1/10.

At $2,948 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of Half Moon Bay commands. The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 0.7 points below the San Mateo County average of 7.0.

That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.2/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $167,872.

28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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