Analysis

What drives eviction risk in East Wenatchee

Against Douglas County at 34.4%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is supply constraint at 9.9/10. Average gross rent is $2,212, 67% above the East Wenatchee average.

The voucher gap is 48.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 0.8/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 56 filings here across 16 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2001 at 4.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
