Newport Shores is a 2-tract neighborhood of Bellevue, WA and houses 6,305 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.3/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. At $1,314 a month, rents sit 49% under what the rest of Bellevue commands.
21% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 31 evictions logged in this tract.
Filing activity peaked in 2007 at 1.7% of renter households. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7/10.
The most recent observed rate, 0.9% in 2013, is well off that peak. That places it #7 of 21 neighborhoods in Bellevue. At 22% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Rent takes 8% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 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, 0.5 points apart at the extremes.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
