Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ridgefield

Cost burden runs 60% here against 43.7% across Clark County. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10.

Average gross rent is $1,854, 21% below the Ridgefield average. It sits 1.1 points below the Clark County average of 5.7. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 6.9/10.

On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 17% 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. Social vulnerability reads 3.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $105,891.

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