Yakima Eviction Risk: Elevated

Severe burden reaches 35%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.7/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 34.3% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.9/10. Against the Yakima County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.8 points.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.7/10. Disability prevalence runs 45.1% against 31.5% nationally.

Average gross rent is $900, 19% below the Yakima average. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 34 filings here across 1 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2015, when 2.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 2.3% of renter households face a filing.

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.
