Lake Tapps Eviction Risk: Lower

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. The voucher gap is 27.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.6/10. Average gross rent is $2,617, 25% above the Lake Tapps average.

On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 12 evictions over 6 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2013 at 3.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 9% 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 1.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
