Potawatomi takes in 2 census tracts of Draper, UT, population 11,161. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $981 a month, rents sit 48% under what the rest of Draper commands.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10.
Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Against a Draper baseline of 29.2%, 35% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The filing record is not thin: 48 evictions logged in this tract. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 7.8% of adults, 10.0 points below the national rate.
The worst year on record was 2008, when filings touched 1.9% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.7% in 2016 against a 1.9% peak. Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Draper, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third.
At 15% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Allen and Traverse Chateaux at South Mountain score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 7% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
