Festival maps to a single census tract in West Jordan, UT and houses 7,325 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the West Jordan rate of 31.1%.
17% 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. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.
Court records for this tract carry 120 eviction filings. SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 8.5% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.3% in 2016, is well off that peak.
Average gross rent is $1,635, 7% below the West Jordan average of $1,757. Among the 14 mapped neighborhoods of West Jordan, it ranks #6 by risk, the middle third. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
