Sunset Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

Running cool, court filing pressure reads 1.9/10. 18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 33 eviction filings across 4 observed years.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.9/10. SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

The worst year on record was 2010, when 2.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.8% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #63,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.4/10.

Against average income of $106,014, annual rent is just 15%. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 41% of renters.

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.
