Yakima Eviction Risk: Elevated

Adults with no health insurance runs 33.6% against 11.3% nationally. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.9/10.

This is renter territory: 81% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.8 points above the Yakima County average of 5.7.

The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 2.7/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.8/10. That is riskier than roughly 88% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,041, close to the Yakima average.

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.
