The Woodlands is a 3-tract neighborhood of Thousand Oaks, CA, population 11,627. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.1/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Thousand Oaks baseline of 32.9%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.8/10.
That places it #6 of 8 neighborhoods in Thousand Oaks. Only 26% 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, Bridgehaven and Lynnmere score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Its 3 tracts score within 0.9 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Average gross rent runs $2,617, close to the Thousand Oaks average. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $135,760.
With little internal variation, 6.1/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
