Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lake Goodwin

What moves this score most is eviction process difficulty at 5.9/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Lake Goodwin, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Snohomish County average of 5.2 and below the Washington statewide average of 5.2. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

The tract is White and multiracial or other-race and ranks around the 66th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 13 eviction filings here over 4 tracked years, with about 0.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 1.5% of renter households in 2017.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
