Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Midvale
The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 9.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Midvale eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Salt Lake County average of 4.4 and above the Utah statewide average of 4.0. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 674 eviction filings here over 9 tracked years, with about 6.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 9.2% of renter households in 2009.
In CDC survey modeling, about 15.3% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 9.5% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
