Melody Park maps to a single census tract in Farmersville, CA and houses 5,556 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 8/10, in the High tier. Against a Farmersville baseline of 35.6%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
SNAP participation is 48.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 35.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
30% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 33%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 8.4/10.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.9/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.1/10. At $1,020 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Farmersville commands.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $46,583. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 8/10 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.
