Neighborhood · Mission, KS

Countryside Eviction Risk: Moderate

5 census tracts · pop 17,419 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4/10 · range 3–5.5

Countryside spans 5 census tracts of Mission, KS and houses 17,419 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4/10, Moderate tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in four of renter households.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 5.5, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. At $1,496 a month, rents sit 25% over what the rest of Mission commands. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.1/10.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. 13% 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. SNAP participation is 4.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 7.5% of adults, 10.3 points below the national rate. The voucher gap is 11.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Against average income of $102,158, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.

35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
