Hawaiʻiloa Ridge Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,333 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Hawaiʻiloa Ridge maps to a single census tract in East Honolulu, HI, population 3,333. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 35.0% citywide, putting Hawaiʻiloa Ridge 19.5% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.2/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

3.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. At $2,869 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of East Honolulu commands.

That places it #1 of 10 neighborhoods in East Honolulu. Only 11% 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. For a like-for-like read, Hawai’i Kai and Mariner's Ridge score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $206,125, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
