That is riskier than roughly 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.5/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $2,098, close to the Westminster average.

Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $89,398. 60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
