Twin Lakes spans 2 census tracts of Little Rock, AR, population 5,060. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Little Rock baseline of 29.6%, 52% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
30% 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. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 25%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2/10. 14.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
That places it #14 of 21 neighborhoods in Little Rock. Its 2 tracts score within 0.4 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Average gross rent runs $1,094, close to the Little Rock average. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $53,693. 59% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
