Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Montgomery Creek
The score leans hardest on eviction-process difficulty at 6.9/10. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
It sits 0.7 points above the Shasta County average of 6.1. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 17% 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.
Statute speed, court posture and rent-regulation exposure are inherited from Montgomery Creek rather than measured on these blocks; the economic and supply components are the tract-level part of the score. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,372, close to the Montgomery Creek average.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $64,271.
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.
