What drives eviction risk in Windsong
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 7.7/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Kennewick eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
