West View Ridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Lake Stevens, WA and houses 4,962 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 45%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs 87% against 33.1% citywide, putting West View Ridge 53.8% over its own city. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10.
Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $2,326, close to the Lake Stevens average. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $121,250.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
