Mirabeau Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,141 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 4.9–4.9

Mirabeau is a one-tract neighborhood of University Place, WA, population 6,141. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.9/10, in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10. The severe-burden share is 14%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Against a University Place baseline of 34.2%, 40% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The filing record is not thin: 478 evictions logged in this tract.

At $1,969 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of University Place commands. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 6.0% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 3.2% in 2015, is well off that peak. That places it #8 of 8 neighborhoods in University Place. For a like-for-like read, Alameda Park and Grandview Park score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 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: 4.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
