Katesridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Maple Valley, WA, population 4,694. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 32% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
40% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Maple Valley rate of 30.7%. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 7.8/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Court records for this tract carry 33 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 5.5% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $2,518, 9% above the Maple Valley average of $2,304. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2012, is well off that peak.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Maple Valley, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Only 17% 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. For a like-for-like read, Belemonte and Glacier Park score within a fraction of it.
Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
One tract means one number: 5.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
