Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hilltop

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 27.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,228, 25% above the Sandy average.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.9/10. SNAP participation runs 4.1% against 15.2% nationally.

The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Food insecurity runs 9.1% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 43 evictions over 9 years of observation.

Against the Salt Lake County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. Filings peaked in 2009 at 6.6% of renter households.

In a typical year about 4.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
