Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Cascade
Pulling hardest the other way is eviction-process difficulty at 1.6/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.7/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10.
The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. SNAP participation runs 7.1% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.1% against 17.8% nationally.
On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $75,000, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 40% of renters. It tracks the Cascade County average of 3.5 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
