Montana Ranchos Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,627 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Montana Ranchos maps to a single census tract in Sandy, UT and houses 2,627 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

SNAP participation is 3.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 10 evictions logged in this tract.

Food insecurity affects 8.0% of adults, 9.8 points below the national rate. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 5.6% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.1% in 2014, is well off that peak. Among the 13 mapped neighborhoods of Sandy, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third. Only 4% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

For a like-for-like read, Alta Heights and White Sands score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
