Palm Desert Eviction Risk: Moderate

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.2/10. SNAP participation runs 5.0% against 15.2% nationally.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Riverside County average of 6.6. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.2% against 11.3% nationally.

That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 14% 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 2.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.8 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.

Average gross rent is $1,769, close to the Palm Desert average. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $112,375.

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