Cherry Grove Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,083 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.8/10 · range 3.8–3.8

Cherry Grove is a one-tract suburb of Battle Ground, WA, population 6,083. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

Against a Battle Ground baseline of 26.8%, 37% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. At $2,003 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of Battle Ground commands.

The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The filing record is not thin: 44 evictions logged in this tract.

Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 4.1% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.5% in 2018, is well off that peak.

That places it #4 of 4 neighborhoods in Battle Ground. At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $109,104.

One tract means one number: 3.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
