Analysis
What drives eviction risk in North Garfield
What moves this score most is economic stress at 9.4/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 462 eviction filings here over 5 tracked years, with about 7.8% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 8.8% of renter households in 2002.
The tract is racially mixed and ranks around the 70th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
