Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Magalia

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,074, 27% below the Magalia average. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.1/10.

Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.3/10.

The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 12 filings here across 1 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2014, when 4.9% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
