Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Larkspur
What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Against the Pierce County average of 5.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
Court records carry 28 eviction filings across 9 observed years. Filings peaked in 2010 at 3.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 13% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10. Against average income of $147,031, annual rent is just 15%. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
