Louisville Eviction Risk: Lower

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.2/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.8/10.

At $1,381 a month, rents run 23% over what the rest of Louisville commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 874 filings here across 14 tracked years. Severe burden reaches 8%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The worst year on record was 2004, when 48.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 23.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
