The Ridge at Glacier Creek Eviction Risk: Moderate
2 census tracts · pop 13,239 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 3.8–5
The Ridge at Glacier Creek is a 2-tract neighborhood of South Hill, WA and houses 13,239 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs about half against 29.9% citywide, putting The Ridge at Glacier Creek 22.5% over its own city.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.6/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.8 to 5, a 1.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. 13% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. Court records carry 254 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 4.6% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 3.4% in 2015 against a 4.6% peak. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of South Hill, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. At 28% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are The North Rim and Emerald Glen. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $2,115, close to the South Hill average.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
