Rogers Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

7 census tracts · pop 25,489 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.6/10 · range 3.6–5.1

Rogers Park is a 7-tract neighborhood of Anchorage, AK and houses 25,489 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.6/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 57% against 28.5% citywide, putting Rogers Park 28.3% over its own city.

Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Scores across the 7 constituent tracts range from 3.6 to 5.1. A 1.5-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. That places it #1 of 5 neighborhoods in Anchorage. For a like-for-like read, Spenard and State Manor score within a fraction of it.

Average gross rent runs $1,432, close to the Anchorage average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $77,616.

52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
