Stillwater Eviction Risk: Lower

56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Washington County average of 44.0%. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Food insecurity runs 5.7% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 5.5% against 14.2% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 10 evictions over 3 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2011, when 6.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 7% 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 1.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $163,333, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the MN average is 4.5, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

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.
