Barrington Park spans 5 census tracts of New Orleans, LA and houses 20,727 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.3/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 35%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Against a New Orleans baseline of 35.9%, about half of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.9 to 6.6, a 2.7-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10.
17.2% 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 poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Filings are well documented here: 3,181 across 5 observed tracts. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.9/10.
Food insecurity affects 28.1% of adults, 10.3 points above the national rate. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 42.7% of renter households.
At $1,166 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of New Orleans commands. That places it #17 of 29 neighborhoods in New Orleans.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.7 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
