Analysis

What drives eviction risk in The Highlands of Cedar River

Against the King County average of 6.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 3.3 points. At $1,698 a month, rents run 38% under what the rest of Hobart commands. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.9/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 27 filings here across 9 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2004, when 3.9% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.3/10. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $136,573, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
