Little Valley is a one-tract suburb of St. George, UT, population 6,240. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The voucher gap is 37.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,043, 32% above the St. George average of $1,545.
22% 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. On the high side is supply constraint at 8.8/10.
Cost burden runs 41% against 34.0% citywide, putting Little Valley 7.1% over its own city. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 8.1% of adults, 9.7 points below the national rate. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of St. George, it ranks #7 by risk, the lower third. At 11% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $116,696.
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.
