Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Forest Glen South
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10. 51% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the King County average of 44.1%.
Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.3/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 24 filings here across 8 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points below the King County average of 6.7.
Filings peaked in 2008 at 2.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.9/10, 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 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $112,857.
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.
