Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Columbia Way

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 3.1/10. Against the Clark County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

41% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Average gross rent is $1,622, close to the Vancouver average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $92,679.

48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
