1900 Dartmouth Ave, Clovis CA Multifamily Investment
Neighborhood-level fundamentals point to stable renter demand and tight occupancy, according to WDSuite’s CRE market data for the surrounding area. Investors screening Fresno County assets may find consistency here driven by an inner-suburb location and a deep renter pool.
This inner-suburb neighborhood of Clovis ranks 19 out of 246 across the Fresno metro, signaling competitive positioning among metro peers. Amenity access is a local strength: restaurants, cafes, groceries, parks, and childcare are all measured at high national percentiles for the neighborhood, which supports day-to-day livability and leasing appeal for renters.
Multifamily indicators for the neighborhood—measured at the neighborhood scale, not the property—show very tight occupancy, with the area ranking first among 246 Fresno neighborhoods and in the top tier nationally. A high share of housing units are renter-occupied, indicating a sizable tenant base that can support leasing stability and renewal performance. Based on WDSuite’s multifamily property research, this combination of occupancy and renter concentration typically underpins lower downtime between turns.
Homeownership costs in the neighborhood test above national norms (value-to-income sits in a high national percentile), which tends to reinforce reliance on rental housing and can aid pricing power when managed thoughtfully. Median contract rents at the neighborhood level sit around mid-market nationally, while rent-to-income reads moderate, suggesting room for careful rent management without overextending affordability pressure.
Within a 3-mile radius, the population and household counts have grown in recent years, with forecasts pointing to additional population growth and a larger household base over the next five years. For investors, that implies a gradually expanding tenant pool and support for occupancy stability. The property’s 2002 vintage is newer than the neighborhood’s average construction year (1971), which can provide a competitive edge versus older stock, though selective system upgrades or common-area refreshes may be prudent for long-term positioning.
One watchpoint: average school ratings in the neighborhood track below national averages, and pharmacy access is limited locally. While these factors do not define renter demand on their own, they can influence certain renter segments and should be reflected in marketing and retention strategies.
Safety metrics should be read comparatively and at the neighborhood level. The neighborhood’s overall crime rank sits on the better side of many U.S. areas, with national percentiles indicating relatively stronger safety than a majority of neighborhoods. Property offenses have improved sharply year over year, placing the neighborhood in a high national percentile for reduced property crime, which supports resident retention and site-level operating stability.
Balanced against that trend, violent offense measures show a recent uptick over the last year even as the neighborhood remains stronger than many areas nationally. Within the Fresno metro context, ranks (e.g., 35th against 246 neighborhoods) indicate the area is competitive but not the absolute top tier locally. Investors should plan standard lighting, access control, and community engagement practices consistent with inner-suburban assets.
Employment access relies on the broader Fresno–Clovis labor market, with regional employers offering commute-based renter demand rather than immediate walk-to-job anchors. The following employer reflects nearby corporate presence that can contribute to a stable tenant base.

The 82-unit property at 1900 Dartmouth Ave benefits from a neighborhood that ranks competitively among 246 Fresno metro neighborhoods and exhibits very tight neighborhood occupancy alongside a sizable renter-occupied housing base. Within a 3-mile radius, recent population and household growth—and forecasts for additional expansion—point to a larger tenant base that can support occupancy stability and measured rent growth over time. According to commercial real estate analysis from WDSuite, the area’s elevated ownership costs relative to incomes tend to sustain multifamily demand, while neighborhood-level median rents remain moderate in a national context.
Built in 2002, the asset is newer than the neighborhood’s average vintage, which can improve competitive positioning versus older stock. Investors may still consider selective capital planning for building systems and amenities to capture value relative to strong local amenity access and inner-suburban convenience.
- Tight neighborhood occupancy and high renter concentration support leasing stability.
- 3-mile population and household growth expand the tenant base and support retention.
- Newer 2002 vintage versus area average offers competitive positioning with targeted upgrades.
- Elevated ownership costs locally tend to reinforce multifamily demand and pricing power.
- Risks: below-average neighborhood school ratings, a recent uptick in violent offense metrics, and limited immediate employer anchors.
