Marine Drive takes in 3 census tracts of Bremerton, WA and houses 9,372 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.1 to 7.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Filings are well documented here: 14 across 3 observed tracts.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. 37% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, a little above the Bremerton rate of 32.9%. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 1.5% of renter households.
At $1,750 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of Bremerton commands. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Bremerton, it ranks #7 by risk, the lower third.
Judgments average 0.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $92,808.
43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
