2501 Medallion Dr, Union City Multifamily Investment
Neighborhood occupancy has been among the metro s strongest, supporting stable renter demand and pricing resilience, according to WDSuite s CRE market data.
Union City s Inner Suburb setting offers a balanced mix of suburban livability and access to Bay Area employment corridors. Neighborhood occupancy performance ranks at the top of the Oakland Berkeley Livermore metro (1 of 469; top quartile nationally), a positive signal for multifamily stability relative to broader U.S. trends. Median contract rents in the neighborhood benchmark high versus national peers, while the local rent-to-income profile indicates room for measured pricing without outsized retention risk.
Amenity access is mixed. Caf e9 density is competitive among Oakland Berkeley Livermore neighborhoods (40 of 469; top nationwide percentile), and pharmacies track above national norms. However, neighborhood park access and formal childcare options score at the bottom of the metro (469 of 469), which may modestly influence family-oriented renter preferences; investors should account for this in positioning and amenity programming.
Schools in the area average strong ratings (top quartile nationally), a supportive factor for renter households seeking education quality. Home values in the neighborhood are elevated versus national benchmarks, indicating a high-cost ownership market that tends to sustain multifamily demand and lease retention as some households rely on rental options.
The renter-occupied share of housing units at the neighborhood level indicates a moderate renter concentration, offering a meaningful tenant base without overwhelming supply dependency. Within a 3-mile radius, household counts have edged higher and are projected to expand meaningfully even as average household size trends lower, which can translate into a larger pool of renting households over time.
Safety indicators for the neighborhood are mixed relative to both the metro and national context. Recent trends show violent offenses improving year over year (top quartile nationally for improvement), while property offense levels sit around the national middle. At the metro scale, the neighborhood s crime standing is roughly mid-pack among 469 Oakland Berkeley Livermore neighborhoods, suggesting investors should underwrite standard security measures and monitor trendlines rather than assume outlier risk.
Proximity to diversified corporate employers underpins commuter convenience and helps broaden the renter pool, with a concentration in manufacturing, logistics, and technology reflected below.
- Caterpillar corporate offices (4.0 miles)
- Ryder corporate offices (5.4 miles)
- Sanmina Corporation corporate offices (7.8 miles)
- Synnex corporate offices (8.5 miles) HQ
- Lam Research CA9 corporate offices (9.3 miles)
Built in 1972, this 52-unit asset offers value-add and modernization potential in a neighborhood that posts top-of-metro occupancy performance and strong national standing for schools. Elevated local home values point to a high-cost ownership environment that typically sustains rental demand, while neighborhood rents benchmark high yet remain supported by income levels, aiding retention and measured rent growth, based on CRE market data from WDSuite.
Within a 3-mile radius, household counts are rising and average household size is declining, which can expand the renter pool and support occupancy stability. Investors should weigh amenity programming and capital plans against mixed amenity depth (limited parks/childcare) and monitor crime trendlines, which have recently improved on violent offenses but remain mixed overall.
- Top-of-metro neighborhood occupancy supports leasing stability and rent durability
- High-cost ownership market reinforces multifamily demand and retention
- Vintage 1972 asset with clear value-add and modernization upside
- 3-mile household growth and smaller household sizes expand the renter base
- Risk: limited parks/childcare and mixed crime metrics warrant ongoing monitoring
