Centurion Place Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,052 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Centurion Place maps to a single census tract in Baton Rouge, LA and houses 6,052 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 41%. 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 $1,624, 52% above the Baton Rouge average of $1,067. The voucher gap is 32.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Baton Rouge rate of 35.4%. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.3/10. Among the 58 mapped neighborhoods of Baton Rouge, it ranks #44 by risk, the lower third. Only 28% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $61,478.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
