Morning Sun Eviction Risk: Elevated , Kent

77% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the King County average of 44.1%. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $78,750, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10.

At $2,288 a month, rents run 20% over what the rest of Kent commands. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 2.3/10. On the national scale it lands near the 85th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.5/10.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the King County average of 6.7 closely.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
