Glencoe Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 5,083 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.3/10 · range 6.3–6.3

Glencoe is a one-tract neighborhood of Renton, WA, population 5,083. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.3/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 31.7% citywide, putting Glencoe 23.5% over its own city.

Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,446, 28% below the Renton average of $1,998.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.7/10. The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. That places it #13 of 19 neighborhoods in Renton.

For a like-for-like read, May Creek Highlands and Forestview score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Against average income of $118,280, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
