Village West Eviction Risk: Lower , Kansas City

At $1,525 a month, rents run 36% over what the rest of Kansas City commands. Cost burden runs 31% here against 44.1% across Wyandotte County.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.5/10. 14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

SNAP participation runs 4.3% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 8.5% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 5 eviction filings across 1 observed years.

It sits 0.8 points below the Wyandotte County average of 3.8. The voucher gap is 13.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 0.9% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 0.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
