Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pearl City

Average gross rent is $3,155, 36% above the Pearl City average. Pulling hardest the other way is court filing pressure at 1.7/10.

Against the Honolulu County average of 6.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.8 points. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.8/10. The voucher gap is 17.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 2.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the HI average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $123,460.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
