Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Alta Vista

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10. SNAP participation runs 3.8% against 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 8.5% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 26 eviction filings across 9 observed years.

It sits 0.8 points below the Salt Lake County average of 3.8. Filings peaked in 2016 at 7.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 7% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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