Englewood is a 2-tract neighborhood of Indianapolis, IN and houses 4,383 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 35% 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.
43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Indianapolis rate of 30.4%. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.5/10. At $836 a month, rents sit 28% under what the rest of Indianapolis commands.
The poverty rate is 28%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10.
Food insecurity affects 30.2% of adults, 12.4 points above the national rate. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. That places it #1 of 76 neighborhoods in Indianapolis.
For a like-for-like read, Historic Ransom Place and North Indianapolis score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $41,687. 50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 5.4/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
