Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fontana

24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. 47% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Miami County average of 37.5%.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10. SNAP participation runs 5.3% against 15.2% nationally.

Court records carry 3 eviction filings across 1 observed years. Food insecurity runs 9.5% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2000 at 1.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 10% 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 2.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $98,158, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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