Visalia Eviction Risk: Elevated

83% 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. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1.4/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $33,295, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
