Bigfork Eviction Risk: Lower

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10. The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

Food insecurity runs 8.3% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 6.7% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Flathead County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 5.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport 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. 45% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Average gross rent is $1,027, close to the Bigfork average.

Annual rent works out to 18% of average household income of $67,115. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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