Breconshire Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,687 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Breconshire maps to a single census tract in Fort Wayne, IN, population 3,687. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.9/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 28.5% citywide, putting Breconshire 21.7% over its own city.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 28%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10.

Court records for this tract carry 160 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2018 at 7.8% of renter households.

That places it #16 of 45 neighborhoods in Fort Wayne. Judgments average 4.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, Highland Park Forest and Avalon score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $952, close to the Fort Wayne average. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $50,044.

62% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
