Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westfield

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,259, 32% above the Bozeman average. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.7/10.

SNAP participation runs 1.9% against 15.2% nationally. Disability prevalence runs 19.5% against 31.5% nationally. Against the Gallatin County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7/10. On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 7% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

40% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Annual rent works out to 18% of average household income of $149,219.

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.
