Analysis

What drives eviction risk in The Arts District

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. 39% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Honolulu County average of 50.9%.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. 78% 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. Against the Honolulu County average of 6.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.0 points.

Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Food insecurity runs 28.0% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $52,917, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the HI average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.1 points hotter.

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.
