Civic Center Eviction Risk: High , San Jose

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10.

67% 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. Cost burden runs 39% here against 43.5% across Santa Clara County.

Average gross rent is $3,021, 13% above the San Jose average. It sits 0.7 points above the Santa Clara County average of 8.0. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for San Jose. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

On the national scale it lands near the 94th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 6.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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