Food insecurity runs 5.5% against 17.8% nationally. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Alameda County average of 7.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points.

Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Against average income of $246,193, annual rent is just 14%.
