Court records for this tract carry 2 eviction filings. 3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Severe burden reaches 9%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Filing activity peaked in 2000 at 0.4% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 0.4% in 2001 against a 0.4% peak. At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $125,068, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
