Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Read Blvd East
69% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Orleans Parish average of 51.4%. Set annual rent against average income of $22,956 and the ratio lands at 53%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity runs 48.2% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 50.7% against 15.2% nationally. 85% 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.
The dominant input is regional political climate at 8.4/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.8/10.
The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10.
It sits 1.3 points above the Orleans Parish average of 5.4. At $1,011 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of New Orleans commands. Court records carry 988 eviction filings across 8 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2010 at 49.1% of renter households.
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.
