Levassor Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

6 census tracts · pop 14,955 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 4.1–5.2

Levassor Park spans 6 census tracts of Covington, KY and houses 14,955 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.1/10, Moderate tier. Against a Covington baseline of 29.6%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Average gross rent is $743, 26% below the Covington average of $1,006. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. The 6 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 4.1 to 5.2, a 1.1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

Running hot is economic stress at 7.1/10. Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Covington, it ranks #2 by risk, the middle third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Latonia and Mainstrasse Village. Against average income of $46,856, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
