42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Kapolei rate of 32.5%. The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 4.6 to 6.8, a 2.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.6/10. At $2,091 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Kapolei commands. Only 12% 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.
Against average income of $131,730, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
