Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Olympia

Against the Thurston County average of 5.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.6 points. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10.

Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $47,651, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The poverty rate is 31%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. 55% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Thurston County average of 47.2%.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.2/10. Average gross rent is $1,381, 14% below the Olympia average. That is riskier than roughly 93% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 8.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.5 points hotter.

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.
