Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ocean View Plaza

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Food insecurity runs 6.6% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Monterey County average of 7.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. SNAP participation runs 5.9% against 15.2% nationally.

On the national scale it lands near the 79th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.4/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 51% of renters.

Average gross rent is $2,474, close to the Pacific Grove average.

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.
