Lynn Place is a one-tract neighborhood of Baton Rouge, LA and houses 2,043 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 50%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Against a Baton Rouge baseline of 35.4%, 81% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. 34.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 45%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
SNAP participation is 56.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Set annual rent against average household income of $30,849 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. At $887 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Baton Rouge commands.
Among the 58 mapped neighborhoods of Baton Rouge, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Goodwood Homesites and Melrose Place score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
