Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Wyandotte/Oakdale
What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.6/10. Against Jefferson County at 42.9%, 56% of renters here are cost-burdened.
The poverty rate is 38%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.2/10.
Set annual rent against average income of $36,071 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Against the Jefferson County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.
Court records carry 2,142 eviction filings across 14 observed years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 32.3% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 17.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
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.
