Vancouver Mall Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 13,336 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 4.3–8

Vancouver Mall spans 3 census tracts of Vancouver, WA and houses 13,336 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.8/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Vancouver baseline of 31.8%, 57% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.3 to 8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. 23% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 274 evictions logged in this tract.

The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 3.1% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 3.4% in 2018 against a 3.1% peak.

Among the 39 mapped neighborhoods of Vancouver, it ranks #37 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Fisher's Creek and Parkside score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Average gross rent runs $1,701, close to the Vancouver average. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $78,121.

60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
