Cottonwood Slopes Eviction Risk: Lower
1 census tracts · pop 3,512 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3
Cottonwood Slopes maps to a single census tract in Sandy, UT and houses 3,512 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.3/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10.
roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Sandy rate of 28.8%. Court records for this tract carry 40 eviction filings. SNAP participation is 4.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The voucher gap is 14.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 9% 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.
At $2,000 a month, rents sit 13% over what the rest of Sandy commands. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 7.7% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 9.6% of adults, 8.2 points below the national rate.
The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 13 neighborhoods in Sandy. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Alta Heights and White Sands.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
