Douglas Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,949 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.9/10 · range 5.9–5.9

Douglas maps to a single census tract in Blaine, WA, population 3,949. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.9/10, in the Moderate tier. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 2.8/10.

Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. 23% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, below the Blaine rate of 27.9%. At $1,284 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Blaine commands.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Against average income of $81,076, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. 43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 5.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
