Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Crystal Ridge
23% 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 softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10. 54% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Pierce County average of 47.5%.
Average gross rent is $2,139, 18% above the Puyallup average. Against the Pierce County average of 5.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.
The filing record is not thin: 50 evictions over 11 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2008, when 4.6% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 2.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 16% 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 3.3/10. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
