Sand Dunes is a one-tract neighborhood of South Jordan, UT, population 6,902. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.
The voucher gap is 27.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Against a South Jordan baseline of 27.9%, 19% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 7.7/10. SNAP participation is 4.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
At $2,225 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of South Jordan commands. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of South Jordan, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third. Only 3% 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.
Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $126,667.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
