Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rock Island
The score leans hardest on eviction process difficulty at 5.7/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Rock Island, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Douglas County average of 4.1 and below the Washington statewide average of 5.2. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 86 eviction filings here over 17 tracked years, with about 1.2% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 2.9% of renter households in 2001.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 67th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
