Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Artondale

What moves this score most is eviction process difficulty at 5.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Artondale, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Pierce County average of 5.5 and below the Washington statewide average of 5.2. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 20 eviction filings here over 9 tracked years, with about 1.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.6% of renter households in 2009.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.50x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
