CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 30.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 31%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 2,656 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 51.0% of renter households. 17.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Recent filings have not receded much: 55.9% in 2016 against a 51.0% peak.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
