Goodwood Homesites Eviction Risk: Moderate , Baton Rouge

Food insecurity runs 41.4% against 17.8% nationally. 30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $28,370 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Housing insecurity runs 30.7% against 14.2% nationally.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10. The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.4/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3. At $909 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Baton Rouge commands. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 10/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the LA average is 4.4, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

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.
