Ulu Ko Eviction Risk: Moderate , Lihue

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.3/10.

That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10.

Statewide the HI average is 5.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Kauai County average of 5.6 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,965, close to the Lihue average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
