Your month to month lease likely gives either party the ability to end the lease with X days of notice. They're exercising their option to ending the lease.

Just thought I had more time to save and not move. It feel like an eviction in a way.

You don't have a long term lease. You're just being asked to leave now that your lease is over. Eviction is when you're told to leave during the middle of your lease for breaking the contract.

No no no not in California!!!!

If you’ve been there more than a year it’s almost impossible to change the terms

Here's the law. Read Section b1E

https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=1946.2.&lawCode=CIV

"the tenant has refused to execute a written extension or renewal of the lease for an additional term of similar duration with similar provisions."

OP could try to hire a lawyer to argue that a 10% rent increase isn't "similar provisions." But that's something we'll beyond what should be considered here at r/personalfinance
