Washington Eviction Risk: Moderate , Fargo

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.1 points above the Cass County average of 3.5.

At $1,057 a month, rents run 12% over what the rest of Fargo commands. On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $73,291, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the ND average is 3.5, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
