Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Thompsons
The main counterweight is state political climate at 1.9/10. At $1,807 a month, rents run 28% over what the rest of Salt Lake City commands.
The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against Salt Lake County at 42.4%, 35% of renters here are cost-burdened. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10.
Against the Salt Lake County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. SNAP participation runs 6.2% against 15.2% nationally. Court records carry 101 eviction filings across 9 observed years.
Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 3/10. Filings peaked in 2010 at 5.8% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
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.
