Abney Glen Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,497 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Abney Glen is a one-tract neighborhood of Carmel, IN, population 6,497. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $3,501, 104% above the Carmel average of $1,712.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 172.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. 32% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Carmel rate of 26.7%.

Disability prevalence reaches 19.4% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. 3.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Among the 8 mapped neighborhoods of Carmel, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third. At 9% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Grannan Grove and Holaday Hills and Dales.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
