Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Santa Clara Heights
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10.
The voucher gap is 27.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10. Food insecurity runs 8.1% against 17.8% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 6.4% against 14.2% nationally. It sits 0.6 points below the Washington County average of 3.6. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters.
Average gross rent is $1,888, close to the Santa Clara average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
