Sunset Place Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,273 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3.5–3.5

Sunset Place maps to a single census tract in Bettendorf, IA, population 3,273. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Bettendorf baseline of 26.9%, 36% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. The severe-burden share is 12%. 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 economic stress, at 2.7/10. Court records for this tract carry 124 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 6.4% of renter households. At $1,077 a month, rents sit 9% under what the rest of Bettendorf commands. The most recent observed rate, 3.2% in 2015, is well off that peak.

That places it #3 of 10 neighborhoods in Bettendorf. For a like-for-like read, Tanglefoot Heights and Elmwood Park score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $75,460, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.5/10 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.
