Hamilton Acres Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,951 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 4.5–4.5

Hamilton Acres maps to a single census tract in Fairbanks, AK, population 3,951. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, Moderate tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in three of renter households. 15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $1,248, 17% below the Fairbanks average of $1,496. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Fairbanks, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Totem Park and Westgate.

Against average income of $88,143, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
