Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Allegra Terrace Aparments

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10. 58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Pierce County average of 47.5%. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.9/10.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.9/10. It sits 1.1 points above the Pierce County average of 5.7. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 320 filings here across 11 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2007, when 3.2% of renter households were served. 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.

In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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

Average gross rent is $1,627, close to the University Place average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
