Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Makalapa Housing

88% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Honolulu County average of 50.9%. Average gross rent is $3,242, 78% above the Urban Honolulu average.

Set annual rent against average income of $77,842 and the ratio lands at 50%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 99% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10.

The voucher gap is 20.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 0.7 points above the Honolulu County average of 6.0.

That is riskier than roughly 83% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
