Village West Eviction Risk: Moderate

Food insecurity affects 42.7% of adults, 24.9 points above the national rate. SNAP participation is 39.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

The poverty rate is 35%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Set annual rent against average household income of $38,610 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Running hot is economic stress at 8.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 437 evictions logged in this tract.

11% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The worst year on record was 2002, when filings touched 27.9% of renter households.

On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 12.5% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #1 of 6 neighborhoods in Montgomery. For a like-for-like read, Maxwell Heights and Young Forte Village score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
