Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lincoln International District

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 7.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 271 filings here across 11 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 5.9% of renter households.
This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 4.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 88% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Social vulnerability reads 6.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
