Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Old East Rome

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9.9/10. The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

SNAP participation runs 36.3% against 15.2% nationally. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.4/10.

The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.3/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $34,856 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Housing insecurity runs 28.3% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Floyd County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 767 filings here across 5 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 22.3% of renter households.
