Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Garden District
Food insecurity runs 48.9% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 44%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 30% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Montgomery County average of 42.8%.
Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 32.8% against 14.2% nationally.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Average gross rent is $803, 26% below the Montgomery average.
The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.0 points above the Montgomery County average of 4.0. Court records carry 224 eviction filings across 9 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2006, when 11.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
