Allisonville Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 7,189 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3–4.4

Allisonville is a 2-tract neighborhood of Indianapolis, IN, population 7,189. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Indianapolis rate of 30.4%.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. This is a renter market: 76% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. 18% 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.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.4. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Average gross rent is $1,380, 19% above the Indianapolis average of $1,156.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.3/10. SNAP participation is 5.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

That places it #48 of 76 neighborhoods in Indianapolis. For a like-for-like read, Spring Mill Woods and Benton House score within a fraction of it.

Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $65,930.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
