Vallemar maps to a single census tract in Pacifica, CA and houses 3,368 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.8/10, in the Elevated tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.4/10.
Average gross rent is $3,501, 13% above the Pacifica average of $3,098. 5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. That places it #2 of 5 neighborhoods in Pacifica.
At 14% 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 Pedro Valley and Pacific Manor.
Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
