Proebstel Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 7,148 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Proebstel is a one-tract suburb of Orchards, WA, population 7,148. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 42%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

around two-thirds of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Orchards rate of 29.0%. At $2,428 a month, rents sit 36% over what the rest of Orchards commands. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.

The voucher gap is 21.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the high side is supply constraint at 7.2/10. Court records for this tract carry 38 eviction filings.

The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 5.2% of renter households. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. The most recent observed rate, 1.5% in 2018, is well off that peak.

Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $120,057.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
