Pleasant Valley maps to a single census tract in West Valley City, UT and houses 7,562 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 14% against 29.7% citywide, putting Pleasant Valley 15.9% under its own city.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.1/10. Average gross rent is $1,933, 29% above the West Valley City average of $1,504. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10. The voucher gap is 10.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 17.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of West Valley City, it ranks #7 by risk, the lower third. Only 8% 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.
Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 4%, 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.
