On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
