Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Saigon

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $93,571, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. It sits 1.9 points above the Santa Clara County average of 8.0.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. Food insecurity runs 29.0% against 17.8% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 21.6% against 11.3% nationally. At $3,129 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of San Jose commands.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. 27% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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