Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ballpark
This is renter territory: 79% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. 24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Pulling hardest the other way is state political climate at 1.9/10. It sits 1.6 points above the Salt Lake County average of 3.8. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2/10.
The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 598 filings here across 9 tracked years. Food insecurity runs 25.4% against 17.8% nationally.
At $1,230 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Salt Lake City commands. Filings peaked in 2015 at 4.6% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
