Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Douglas
Pulling hardest the other way is court filing pressure at 1.1/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.8/10. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.8/10. Average gross rent is $1,284, 11% below the Blaine average.
That is riskier than roughly 77% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 8.5/10 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.
It tracks the Whatcom County average of 5.9 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $81,076.
43% 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.
