La Center Eviction Risk: Moderate

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.

It sits 1.4 points below the Clark County average of 5.7. The filing record is not thin: 18 evictions over 7 years of observation. At $2,150 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of La Center commands.

The worst year on record was 2015, when 2.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.3% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The legal-climate inputs (statute speed, court posture, rent-regulation exposure) come from La Center as a whole. Only the economic and supply signals are measured inside this tract.

Social vulnerability reads 2.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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