Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Graham

Set annual rent against average income of $79,375 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 20.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,484, 19% above the Graham average.

Against the Pierce County average of 5.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.1/10.

Nationally it ranks #39,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.2/10. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
