Belridge Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 4,604 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.3/10 · range 6.3–6.3

Belridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Bellevue, WA and houses 4,604 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.3/10, in the Elevated tier. 49% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Bellevue rate of 23.4%.

The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 51 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 1.4% of renter households. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10. The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2013, is well off that peak.

Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Bellevue, it ranks #7 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Sammamish Heights and Newport Shores.

Against average income of $166,944, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 6.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
