Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Meadowfair

The severe-burden share is 25%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10.

Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. At $3,113 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of San Jose commands.

That is riskier than roughly 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

41% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Santa Clara County average of 8.0 closely.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $157,179. 40% 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.
