Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tumwater

18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Cost burden runs 39% here against 47.2% across Thurston County.

Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.2/10. Average gross rent is $1,575, 11% below the Tumwater average.

On the national scale it lands near the 79th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Thurston County average of 5.8 closely.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $81,706.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
