Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Proctor
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. At $2,280 a month, rents run 36% over what the rest of Tacoma commands. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.8/10.
Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 65 evictions over 11 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2014, when 1.8% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Tacoma. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #20,506 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10.
