Sacramento City College Eviction Risk: Elevated

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. 18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.7/10.

Housing insecurity runs 6.9% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $172,595, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. 50% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
