Stonefield Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,751 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 4.9–4.9

Stonefield maps to a single census tract in Covington, WA and houses 3,751 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.9/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 67% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Covington rate of 29.9%.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.1/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. At $1,884 a month, rents sit 16% under what the rest of Covington commands.

Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Covington, it ranks #3 by risk, the lower third. Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
