Westgate Eviction Risk: Moderate , West Valley City

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The filing record is not thin: 381 evictions over 9 years of observation.

It sits 0.8 points above the Salt Lake County average of 3.8. Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 3/10. Filings peaked in 2010 at 10.5% of renter households.

In a typical year about 7.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the UT average is 3.7, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
