Norma Jean Addition maps to a single census tract in Lafayette, IN and houses 6,032 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Lafayette baseline of 31.0%, 71% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. 22% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10. The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10.
That places it #7 of 15 neighborhoods in Lafayette. For a like-for-like read, Commanche and South Oakland score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $1,087, close to the Lafayette average.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $62,083. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 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.
