Valley Oak Eviction Risk: Moderate , Visalia

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.5/10. Against the Tulare County average of 6.9, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.7 points.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Food insecurity runs 10.5% against 17.8% nationally.

On the national scale it lands near the 65th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $117,917, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.3 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,564, close to the Visalia average.

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