Analysis
What drives eviction risk in University House
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.
72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. Cost burden runs 41% here against 36.0% across Washington County.
That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 6.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Washington County average of 3.7 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,146, close to the Fayetteville average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $65,388.
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.
