President Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 5,213 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.7/10 · range 7.7–7.7

President Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Renton, WA, population 5,213. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.7/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Renton baseline of 31.7%, 69% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 278 evictions logged in this tract.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.4/10. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 4.2% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.6% in 2013, is well off that peak.

At $1,876 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Renton commands. That places it #3 of 19 neighborhoods in Renton.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Shadow Hawk and North Renton. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.7/10 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.
