What drives eviction risk in Los Altos
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10.
around a third of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Santa Clara County average of 43.5%. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.1/10.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $250,001, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.9 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
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.
