2 census tracts · pop 8,586 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.9/10 · range 5.8–6

32% 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 dominant input is eviction-process difficulty at 7.2/10. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.2/10.

Court records carry 310 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 11.0% of renter households. Judgments average 2.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0.2 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Average gross rent runs $1,004, close to the Altamont average.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $53,934. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

With little internal variation, 5.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
