Lynn Haven Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,700 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Lynn Haven maps to a single census tract in Holt, AL and houses 2,700 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Holt rate of 18.1%.

The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10.

The poverty rate is 26%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Food insecurity affects 33.6% of adults, 15.8 points above the national rate. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 23.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. At $825 a month, rents sit 18% under what the rest of Holt commands. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.

The filing record is not thin: 116 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 3.6% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2016, is well off that peak.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $37,089.

One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
