Fletcher Place maps to a single census tract in Indianapolis, IN and houses 4,095 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. At $1,574 a month, rents sit 36% over what the rest of Indianapolis commands.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. This is a renter market: 77% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 22.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
about a quarter of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, lower than the Indianapolis rate of 30.4%. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Among the 76 mapped neighborhoods of Indianapolis, it ranks #62 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Wanamaker and Woodstock. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
