Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Prairie Creek

45% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Benton County average of 30.1%. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 22.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally. Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 2.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $105,750, annual rent is just 15%. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Benton County average of 3.6 closely.

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