On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 10/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the WA average is 5.9, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $45,850.

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.
