Milpitas Eviction Risk: Elevated

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.3/10.

It sits 1.4 points below the Santa Clara County average of 8.0. SNAP participation runs 6.7% against 15.2% nationally.

Average gross rent is $3,501, 12% above the Milpitas average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

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.
