Sheridan spans 2 census tracts of Bremerton, WA, population 8,846. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.9/10, in the Elevated tier. 62% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Bremerton rate of 32.9%.
The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.3/10.
Court records carry 35 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 2.9% of renter households.
That places it #3 of 7 neighborhoods in Bremerton. Judgments average 0.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a like-for-like read, East Bremerton and Sheridan Park score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0.1 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Average gross rent runs $1,711, close to the Bremerton average. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $76,943.
49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 7.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
