Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Yakima
Adults with no health insurance runs 31.9% against 11.3% nationally. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9/10.
The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The poverty rate is 36%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Average gross rent is $745, 33% below the Yakima average. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.9/10. It sits 1.8 points above the Yakima County average of 5.7.
70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Disability prevalence runs 43.8% against 31.5% nationally.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 50 filings here across 1 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 4.2% of renter households.
