Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Spenard

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.7/10.

At $1,874 a month, rents run 26% over what the rest of Anchorage commands. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.2/10. The voucher gap is 19.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

It sits 0.9 points below the Anchorage Municipality average of 3.9. SNAP participation runs 6.8% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 10.3% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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