Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Northwest

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 54% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Flathead County average of 44.9%. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.7/10.

Against the Flathead County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.6/10. Statewide the MT average is 3.8, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter. Average gross rent is $1,016, close to the Kalispell average.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $45,428.

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.
