Star Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 9.3% against 17.8% nationally. The voucher gap is 12.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 9% 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. Social vulnerability reads 3.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 39% of renters.

It tracks the Canyon County average of 3.5 closely. Average gross rent is $2,067, close to the Star average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $113,841.

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.
