Analysis

What drives eviction risk in St. George

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 1/10.

On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.3/10. Against Washington County at 49.4%, 39% of renters here are cost-burdened.

SNAP participation runs 4.2% against 15.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Washington County average of 3.6 closely. Average gross rent is $1,489, close to the St. George average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
