Parkersville Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,998 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.3/10 · range 7.3–7.3

Parkersville maps to a single census tract in Washougal, WA and houses 3,998 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.3/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 64% against 31.3% citywide, putting Parkersville 32.2% over its own city.

30% 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 supply constraint, at 1.3/10.

Average gross rent is $1,255, 26% below the Washougal average of $1,701. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Court records for this tract carry 111 eviction filings. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 5.2% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.5% in 2018, is well off that peak. Against average income of $83,105, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
