Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Metairie
78% 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. Food insecurity runs 33.4% against 17.8% nationally.
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Housing insecurity runs 24.8% against 14.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.4/10.
Against Jefferson Parish at 47.9%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened. Against the Jefferson Parish average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Social vulnerability reads 7.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
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.
