Featherstone maps to a single census tract in Salt Lake City, UT, population 4,314. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Salt Lake City rate of 30.4%.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
26.8% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $1,022 a month, rents sit 28% under what the rest of Salt Lake City commands. Food insecurity affects 35.2% of adults, 17.4 points above the national rate.
18% 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. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
The filing record is not thin: 356 evictions logged in this tract. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 5.2% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 4.7% in 2016 against a 5.2% peak. Among the 26 mapped neighborhoods of Salt Lake City, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Sunnyside East and East Central. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
