Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tehaleh

The voucher gap is 68.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 2.5 points below the Pierce County average of 5.7. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.2/10.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Cost burden runs 56% here against 47.5% across Pierce County.

On the national scale it lands near the 25th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 7% 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.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.7 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport 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. Average gross rent is $3,455, close to the Tehaleh average.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $139,222.

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.
