· range 4.2–5.4
Crestlawn takes in 2 census tracts of Anderson, IN and houses 5,636 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Anderson baseline of 30.8%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. The severe-burden share is 22%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 4.2 to 5.4. A 1.2-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.7/10.
At $811 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Anderson commands. That places it #5 of 6 neighborhoods in Anderson. For a like-for-like read, Brentwood and Irondale score within a fraction of it.
Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $41,830. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
