Maplewood Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,094 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Maplewood is a one-tract neighborhood of Graham, WA, population 5,094. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 23% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,750, 16% below the Graham average of $2,095. Court records for this tract carry 71 eviction filings.

The severe-burden share is 11%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 6.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.5% in 2015, is well off that peak.

At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $117,022, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
