Serenata Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,443 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

Serenata maps to a single census tract in Visalia, CA, population 5,443. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. The voucher gap is 39.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The dominant input is supply constraint at 8.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,991, 34% above the Visalia average of $1,490.

Against a Visalia baseline of 30.1%, 38% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2/10. That places it #14 of 21 neighborhoods in Visalia. At 24% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $100,505.

One tract means one number: 5.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
