Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Kilauea
The clearest offset is court filing pressure at 1.1/10. 55% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Kauai County average of 42.6%. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 7.5/10.
That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
It tracks the Kauai County average of 5.6 closely. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $85,493.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
