Fairfield Eviction Risk: High

Cost burden runs about three-quarters here against 51.7% across Solano County. SNAP participation runs 35.5% against 15.2% nationally.

Set annual rent against average income of $51,184 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. 73% 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.

At $1,639 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Fairfield commands. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. It sits 1.5 points above the Solano County average of 6.8.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 92nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
