Running cool, state political climate reads 1.9/10. SNAP participation runs 4.5% against 15.2% nationally. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

In a typical year about 2.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.1/10.

Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $97,311, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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.
