The Madison at Ridgegate Eviction Risk: High , Kent

Severe burden reaches 31%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10.

Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $63,854, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Against the King County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 2.3/10.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $1,705 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Kent commands. Nationally it ranks #7,836 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.7/10. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.1 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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.
