Rolling Hills Eviction Risk: High

1 census tracts · pop 3,332 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8/10 · range 8–8

Rolling Hills is a one-tract neighborhood of Renton, WA, population 3,332. Scored across those inputs it reaches 8/10, placing it in the High tier. Cost burden runs 53% against 31.7% citywide, putting Rolling Hills 21.4% over its own city.

29% 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. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10.

This is a renter market: 77% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.4/10.

The poverty rate is 16%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. That places it #1 of 19 neighborhoods in Renton. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Average gross rent runs $1,913, close to the Renton average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $79,128.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
