Forest-Ivanhoe Historic District maps to a single census tract in Hammond, IN, population 2,754. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.1/10, in the Moderate tier. 13% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly below the Hammond rate of 30.3%.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10. At $1,383 a month, rents sit 22% over what the rest of Hammond commands. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The voucher gap is 15.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.3/10.

Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Hammond, it ranks #12 by risk, the lower third. At 22% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $72,772.
