Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Strawberry Square

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10. 74% 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. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10.

Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Santa Clara County average of 8.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. At $2,447 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of San Jose commands.

On the national scale it lands near the 96th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.7/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $122,404.

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