Veradale Eviction Risk: Elevated , Spokane Valley

Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.4/10. At $1,657 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Spokane Valley commands.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 16 evictions over 3 years of observation. The voucher gap is 14.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, court filing pressure reads 3/10. Filings peaked in 2016 at 1.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Spokane County average of 5.7 closely. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $66,985.

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.
