Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kealaula Kai

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 30.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 1.8 points below the Honolulu County average of 6.0.

On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10. On the high side, supply constraint reads 8/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.5% against 11.3% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 6.8% against 14.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2/10. Statewide the HI average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
