Average gross rent is $1,677, 16% below the Renton average. Nationally it ranks #13,349 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
Social vulnerability reads 8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
