Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Clinton
The voucher gap is 41.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 9.1/10.
23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against Clinton County at 38.6%, 47% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10. Court records carry 57 eviction filings across 4 observed years.
Food insecurity runs 10.5% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Clinton County average of 3.9, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.
The worst year on record was 2003, when 5.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 5.1% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
