What drives eviction risk in Valley Mills
Cost burden runs roughly one in three here against 46.3% across Marion County. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10.
The voucher gap is 31.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.2/10.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.9/10. It sits 1.2 points below the Marion County average of 4.2.
Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 10% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
