Shadow Mountain is a one-tract neighborhood of West Jordan, UT, population 4,480. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. 33% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.
SNAP participation is 5.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 11.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. At $1,943 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of West Jordan commands.
Among the 14 mapped neighborhoods of West Jordan, it ranks #6 by risk, the middle third. At 5% 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 Oquirrh and Sienna Hills. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
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.
