Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Anacortes

At $1,010 a month, rents run 41% under what the rest of Anacortes commands. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 1.7/10. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 3 filings here across 2 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 2.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 67th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 24% 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.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $79,667, annual rent is just 15%.

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.
