Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Milpitas

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. Disability prevalence runs 15.3% against 31.5% nationally.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.3/10. Against the Santa Clara County average of 8.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points. Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 8.4% against 17.8% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent is $3,159, close to the Milpitas average.

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.
