Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gilroy

Pulling hardest the other way is court filing pressure at 1.3/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.8/10.

It sits 1.2 points below the Santa Clara County average of 8.0. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $152,063, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $2,195, close to the Gilroy average. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
