Northgate is a one-tract neighborhood of Vallejo, CA, population 3,668. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, Elevated tier. Against a Vallejo baseline of 35.1%, 12% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
At $3,058 a month, rents sit 48% over what the rest of Vallejo commands. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 26.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.
The severe-burden share is 8%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. 5.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. That places it #6 of 6 neighborhoods in Vallejo.
Only 13% 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. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $171,635.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 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.
