Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Woodland

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.8/10. 14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Against the Cowlitz County average of 5.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Average gross rent is $1,512, 11% above the Woodland average.

On the national scale it lands near the 51st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 5.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $114,682, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
