Bloomington Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 25.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.4/10. Average gross rent is $1,859, 20% above the St. George average of $1,545. 14% 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.

28% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, under the St. George rate of 34.0%. SNAP participation is 3.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 6 evictions logged in this tract.

3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 2.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2018, is well off that peak.

That places it #7 of 10 neighborhoods in St. George. At 8% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Little Valley and Bloomington Hills score within a fraction of it.

Poverty sits at 6%, 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. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
