Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Potrero Terrace

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 10/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 10/10. 77% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Average gross rent is $1,888, 24% below the San Francisco average. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

around a third of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the San Francisco County average of 37.3%. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.3/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the San Francisco County average of 9.5 closely. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $94,214.
