Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Woodcrest

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. SNAP participation runs 30.6% against 15.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

Housing insecurity runs 25.0% against 14.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. At $1,237 a month, rents run 16% over what the rest of Baton Rouge commands.

Nationally it ranks #50,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Statute speed, court posture and rent-regulation exposure are inherited from Baton Rouge eviction risk rather than measured on these blocks; the economic and supply components are the tract-level part of the score. Social vulnerability reads 8.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3 closely.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $56,729. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
