Ashwood Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 7,790 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.2/10 · range 6.1–6.2

Ashwood takes in 2 census tracts of Bellevue, WA, population 7,790. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.2/10, Elevated tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.4/10.

The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Cost burden runs around a third against 23.4% citywide, putting Ashwood 8.6% over its own city.

On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. Average gross rent is $2,999, 17% above the Bellevue average of $2,572. The voucher gap is 12.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10. Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Bellevue, it ranks #12 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Eastland and Salishan.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.1 points apart at the extremes.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $173,898.

With little internal variation, 6.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
