Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pacific Heights

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.5/10. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10.

Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Average gross rent is $2,036, 12% above the Urban Honolulu average. Nationally it ranks #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 3.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $135,781, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the Honolulu County average of 6.0 closely.
