Dry Creek Eviction Risk: High

The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.1/10. At $3,387 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of San Jose commands. 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.

Food insecurity affects 7.3% of adults, 10.5 points below the national rate. SNAP participation is 5.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

That places it #32 of 36 neighborhoods in San Jose. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Evergreen and Almaden Valley score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $200,402.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
