Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Chain Lake

Against the Snohomish County average of 5.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.4 points. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Average gross rent is $2,273, 30% above the Chain Lake average. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.8/10.

17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, housing-court posture reads 2.2/10. Court records carry 19 eviction filings across 5 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 8.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 6% 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.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
