Cedar Creek Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,032 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Cedar Creek Heights maps to a single census tract in Lowell, IN, population 7,032. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in four of renter households.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. The severe-burden share is 10%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

SNAP participation is 5.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. At $1,046 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of Lowell commands. Only 13% 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.

Against average income of $85,528, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
