Analysis
What drives eviction risk in South Sherwood Forest
SNAP participation runs 41.0% against 15.2% nationally. 94% 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. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Set annual rent against average income of $37,870 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 3.1/10. On the national scale it lands near the 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.7/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
48% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,088, close to the Baton Rouge average.
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.
