Nalder Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,705 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3.5–3.5

Nalder Heights is a one-tract neighborhood of Layton, UT and houses 2,705 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 40%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 28.8% citywide, putting Nalder Heights 19.5% over its own city. The voucher gap is 44.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Average gross rent is $2,212, 44% above the Layton average of $1,538. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 9.4/10.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.2/10.

The filing record is not thin: 24 evictions logged in this tract. SNAP participation is 4.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.2% of adults, 9.6 points below the national rate.

Filing activity peaked in 2018 at 2.8% of renter households. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Layton, it ranks #6 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 1.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
