New Glenwood Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,888 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

New Glenwood Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Fort Wayne, IN, population 3,888. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 40%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Against a Fort Wayne baseline of 28.5%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

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 49 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2017 at 14.4% of renter households.

SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Recent filings have not receded much: 9.1% in 2018 against a 14.4% peak. At $1,059 a month, rents sit 6% over what the rest of Fort Wayne commands.

Among the 45 mapped neighborhoods of Fort Wayne, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third. Only 6% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Parkway Hills and Stratford Forest.

Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
