Against Santa Clara County at 43.5%, 35% of renters here are cost-burdened. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Average gross rent is $2,415, 10% below the San Jose average. Nationally it ranks #6,330 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Against average income of $184,808, annual rent is just 16%.
