Hillyard Eviction Risk: Elevated , Spokane

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $49,493 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The clearest offset is economic stress at 2.9/10.

On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 3/10. Against the Spokane County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points.

At $1,394 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of Spokane commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

Nationally it ranks #14,906 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 7.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
