Almaden Valley Eviction Risk: High , San Jose

Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. At $3,501 a month, rents run 31% over what the rest of San Jose commands. Housing insecurity runs 5.1% against 14.2% nationally.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 2.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #6,330 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 1.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. 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 0.8 points hotter.

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. 43% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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