Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Makalapa Housing

The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10. Food insecurity runs 37.7% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 32.2% against 15.2% nationally. 70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10.

Against Honolulu County at 50.9%, 42% of renters here are cost-burdened. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

It sits 1.3 points above the Honolulu County average of 6.0. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.7/10.

That is riskier than roughly 87% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
