Old Town is a 5-tract suburb of Camarillo, CA, population 22,610. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.3/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Camarillo baseline of 37.4%, 67% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
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 rent-regulation exposure at 8.8/10. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.
The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 6.5 to 8.3, a 1.8-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.
Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Camarillo, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Leisure Village and Camarillo Heights score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $2,578, close to the Camarillo average.
55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.8 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
