About eviction risk in Kincaid, KS

Kincaid, KS has an eviction risk score of 5.2 out of 10, placing it in the moderate-risk tier for landlords operating in Anderson County and the state of Kansas. The score combines local political climate, court disposition patterns, cost-of-eviction estimates, tenant organizing strength, and the likelihood of new tenant-protective legislation in the next legislative cycle.

Census ACS 2023 5-year estimates show median gross rent as a percentage of household income is 15.0% — a core driver of eviction filings, because households above 30% of income on rent are statistically more likely to miss a payment after any income shock. About 61.8% of occupied units here are renter-occupied.

Economic stress: poverty rate 44.9%, unemployment 3.9%. Higher values correlate with higher eviction filing rates and longer court timelines.

Political climate: In 2020, Anderson County voted Republican by 56.7 points — classified as strongly landlord-leaning for purposes of rent-control or just-cause expansion risk.

What this score means for landlords

At 5.2/10, Kincaid is an elevated-risk environment. Tenant protections are stronger than the national median. Use proactive screening, document notices in writing, and understand your specific just-cause and rent-cap exposure before raising rent or terminating a tenancy.
