Kensington Square Eviction Risk: Elevated , Redwood City

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.1/10. Against San Mateo County at 44.9%, about half of renters here are cost-burdened. Food insecurity runs 7.0% against 17.8% nationally.

At $3,501 a month, rents run 18% over what the rest of Redwood City commands. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.1% against 11.3% nationally.

On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
