Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hillsborough

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10.

Housing insecurity runs 4.5% against 14.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 2.6% against 11.3% nationally.

On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 4% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 3.5 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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