Copper Rock maps to a single census tract in Hurricane, UT and houses 4,558 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 63% against 34.6% citywide, putting Copper Rock 28.0% over its own city.
What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10.
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. The filing record is not thin: 10 evictions logged in this tract. The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 2.1% of renter households.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 7/10. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2018, is well off that peak.
Only 23% 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. Average gross rent runs $1,448, close to the Hurricane average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
