La Porte Eviction Risk: Moderate

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10.

It sits 1.4 points above the LaPorte County average of 3.7. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 8%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $1,066, 12% above the La Porte average. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $57,917. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
