Bradford Place spans 4 census tracts of Wichita, KS and houses 11,533 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Wichita baseline of 27.5%, 39% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,124, 15% above the Wichita average of $975. The voucher gap is 12.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Wichita, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Kechi and Reed's Cove.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.8 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.
