Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Copper Ridge

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the King County average of 44.1%.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.3/10. The filing record is not thin: 62 evictions over 10 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2007, when 2.8% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 81st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 15% 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 6.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the King County average of 6.7 closely. Average gross rent is $2,033, close to the Kent average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $109,460.

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