Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Liberty Wells
The clearest offset is state political climate at 1.9/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 291 evictions over 9 years of observation. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.9/10. Against the Salt Lake County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 5.3% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 3.9% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 51st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
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.
