Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Brenner Heights

30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Cost burden runs 57% here against 44.1% across Wyandotte County.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 49 evictions over 1 years of observation. It sits 0.8 points below the Wyandotte County average of 3.8. The worst year on record was 2016, when 12.1% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 12.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 6.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $61,618, annual rent is just 9%.

34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
