Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Millcreek Vista

57% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the King County average of 44.1%. 85% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $69,034 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 2.3/10.

It sits 1.3 points above the King County average of 6.7. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.6/10.

Average gross rent is $2,065, 8% above the Kent average. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.1 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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.
