Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bonney Lake

The heaviest input here is supply constraint at 6.1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Bonney Lake, 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 56 eviction filings here over 11 tracked years, with about 4.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 7.8% of renter households in 2007.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 11th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

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