Analysis
What drives eviction risk in The Avenues
Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is state political climate at 1.9/10.
It sits 1.6 points above the Salt Lake County average of 3.8. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. SNAP participation runs 3.9% against 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.8/10.
The filing record is not thin: 137 evictions over 9 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2009 at 2.2% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Salt Lake City. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 1.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
