Analysis

What drives eviction risk in North Little Rock

The heaviest input here is economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Pulaski County average of 4.5 and above the Arkansas statewide average of 4.1. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

The tract is predominantly Black and ranks around the 67th 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.

In CDC survey modeling, about 37.6% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 36.0% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
