Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Alameda Park

Average gross rent is $2,497, 42% above the University Place average. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.5/10.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.3/10. The voucher gap is 21.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.9/10.

The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Court records carry 37 eviction filings across 10 observed years. It sits 0.7 points below the Pierce County average of 5.7.

The worst year on record was 2008, when 0.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 0.9% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 61st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 15% 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 1.9/10.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.
