Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Vasona Junction
Against the Santa Clara County average of 8.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 4.5 points. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.
Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. Housing insecurity runs 4.4% against 14.2% nationally.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.2/10. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $250,001, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 4.0 points cooler.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
