Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Galena Canyon

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. At $3,244 a month, rents run 108% over what the rest of Reno commands. The voucher gap is 88.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Food insecurity runs 6.3% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Washoe County average of 4.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2 filings here across 1 tracked years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Filings peaked in 2001 at 3.5% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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