This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Seattle.

Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $130,197, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
