Branham Eviction Risk: High , San Jose

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10. 23% 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 1/10.

Against the Santa Clara County average of 8.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. Average gross rent is $2,353, 12% below the San Jose average.

On the national scale it lands near the 95th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 46% of renters. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $109,295.

53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
