Liberty Park is a 4-tract neighborhood of Crown Point, IN and houses 12,980 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. 45% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Crown Point rate of 28.4%.
The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 3/10.
The voucher gap is 12.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $1,346, 9% below the Crown Point average of $1,485.
Only 19% 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. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $78,395.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.6 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
