Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bonney Lake

It sits 2.5 points below the Pierce County average of 5.7. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Court records carry 56 eviction filings across 11 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2007 at 7.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 12% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2/10. Against average income of $166,677, annual rent is just 17%.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.7 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $2,293, close to the Bonney Lake average.

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