Stadium District Eviction Risk: High , Tacoma

It sits 2.7 points above the Pierce County average of 5.7. 96% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Set annual rent against average income of $51,601 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

What pushes it up most is local political climate at 7.8/10. The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 7.5/10. Against Pierce County at 47.5%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

On the national scale it lands near the 93rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 2.5 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,620, close to the Tacoma average.
