Against a Edmonds baseline of 28.8%, 33% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. 9% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 2.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.7% in 2017, is well off that peak.
That places it #3 of 4 neighborhoods in Edmonds. At 18% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
For a like-for-like read, Emerald Hills and Echo Lake score within a fraction of it.
