Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Canterwood

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.3/10. The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.8 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 48% of renters. Average gross rent is $2,279, close to the Canterwood average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $121,125.
