Oak Hill Jackson is a one-tract neighborhood of Cedar Rapids, IA and houses 1,902 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.6/10, in the Moderate tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Cedar Rapids rate of 28.0%.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 77% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
Average gross rent is $695, 28% below the Cedar Rapids average of $967. The poverty rate is 29%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2/10.
The filing record is not thin: 213 evictions logged in this tract. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 11.0% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 4.1% in 2015, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 8 neighborhoods in Cedar Rapids.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $38,240.
One tract means one number: 4.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
