Massachusetts Avenue Commercial District Eviction Risk: Lower

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. This is a renter market: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

At $1,482 a month, rents sit 28% over what the rest of Indianapolis commands. The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. The voucher gap is 15.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

That places it #55 of 76 neighborhoods in Indianapolis. The closest comparables inside the same city are Bramblewood and Canterbury-Chatard. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $87,047.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
