Waipiʻo Acres Eviction Risk: Lower

6 census tracts · pop 18,050 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.8/10 · range 3–5.3

Waipiʻo Acres is a 6-tract suburb of Mililani Town, HI and houses 18,050 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.8/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Mililani Town rate of 31.0%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.3/10. The 6 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.3, a 2.3-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. 19% 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.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. At $2,052 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Mililani Town commands.

5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. 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.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $113,095.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.3 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
