Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sequim

Set annual rent against average income of $53,910 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $1,519, 27% above the Sequim average. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10. The voucher gap is 22.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool, court filing pressure reads 2.2/10. Against the Clallam County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 4.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
