Valley High Eviction Risk: Moderate , Martinez

23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.6/10.

At $2,863 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Martinez commands. It sits 1.3 points below the Contra Costa County average of 6.8.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Food insecurity runs 7.6% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.3/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 72nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 8% 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 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
