Michigan City Eviction Risk: Moderate

Severe burden reaches 32%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Food insecurity runs 37.6% against 17.8% nationally.

The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.6/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. Disability prevalence runs 43.9% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 0.9 points above the LaPorte County average of 3.7.

That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $991, close to the Michigan City average.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $41,500.

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.
