Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cumberland

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.2/10. 28% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Hancock County average of 39.7%. Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.2/10. Food insecurity runs 7.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 6.6% against 14.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 1.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
