Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fountain Plaza

Average gross rent is $3,501, 33% above the Fountain Valley average. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

The voucher gap is 20.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 1.2 points below the Orange County average of 7.0.

The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.2/10. Against Orange County at 51.8%, 48% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Housing insecurity runs 6.7% against 14.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.0% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 76% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
