Reed's Cove maps to a single census tract in Wichita, KS and houses 8,347 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. 57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Wichita rate of 27.5%.
Severe burden reaches 37%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. At $1,937 a month, rents sit 99% over what the rest of Wichita commands. The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10.
The voucher gap is 94.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.
SNAP participation is 3.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Wichita, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third.
At 25% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Kechi and Bradford Place score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
