9th & 9th is a 2-tract neighborhood of Salt Lake City, UT and houses 7,227 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Salt Lake City baseline of 30.4%, roughly one in two of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
25% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. This is a renter market: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 2.6/10.
Filings are well documented here: 231 across 2 observed tracts. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10.
SNAP participation is 6.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 3.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.7% in 2016, is well off that peak.
At $1,326 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Salt Lake City commands. That places it #1 of 26 neighborhoods in Salt Lake City.
For a like-for-like read, Sunnyside East and East Central score within a fraction of it.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
