Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Finley
The score leans hardest on eviction process difficulty at 6.1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Finley, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Benton County average of 5.0 and below the Washington statewide average of 5.2. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 21 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 5.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.5% of renter households in 2004.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 84th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
