Robson-Voorhees maps to a single census tract in Indianapolis, IN, population 2,083. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 54%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
72% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Indianapolis rate of 30.4%. What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 10/10.
The poverty rate is 54%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Set annual rent against average household income of $19,643 and the ratio lands at 49%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity affects 47.7% of adults, 29.9 points above the national rate.
This is a renter market: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Average gross rent is $807, 30% below the Indianapolis average of $1,156.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.3/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. 22.6% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Among the 76 mapped neighborhoods of Indianapolis, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Historic Ransom Place and North Indianapolis.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 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.
