Lincoln is a one-tract suburb of Vancouver, WA, population 1,759. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7/10, in the Elevated tier. 52% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Vancouver rate of 31.8%.
Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Court records for this tract carry 24 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 1.9% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2018, is well off that peak. Among the 39 mapped neighborhoods of Vancouver, it ranks #24 by risk, the middle third.
Only 25% 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. The closest comparables inside the same city are South Cliff and Riveridge. Against average income of $110,739, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Average gross rent runs $1,676, close to the Vancouver average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
