Stone Bridge Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 10,276 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Stone Bridge spans 2 census tracts of Schererville, IN and houses 10,276 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. 38% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Schererville rate of 27.1%.

The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.7/10.

11% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation is 5.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The voucher gap is 12.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. That places it #1 of 4 neighborhoods in Schererville. Only 27% 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.

For a like-for-like read, New Elliott and Lake Hills score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

Average gross rent runs $1,352, close to the Schererville average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $75,035.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
