Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westcastle

Average gross rent is $3,070, 42% above the Maltby average. It sits 2.4 points below the Snohomish County average of 5.4. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.9/10.

Disability prevalence runs 18.1% against 31.5% nationally. Running cool, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.3/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 12 filings here across 5 tracked years.

The voucher gap is 14.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. The worst year on record was 2017, when 1.8% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 11% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.3/10, 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.
