Snyders Corner Eviction Risk: Moderate

5 census tracts · pop 24,023 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.7/10 · range 5.5–5.9

Snyders Corner takes in 5 census tracts of Kirkland, WA and houses 24,023 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10. 33% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Kirkland rate of 26.9%.

Court records carry 159 eviction filings across its 4 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2007, when filings touched 2.2% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2013, is well off that peak. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Kirkland, it ranks #6 by risk, the lower third.

For a like-for-like read, Juanita and Matthews Beach score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 5 tracts score within 0.4 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

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.
