Analysis
What drives eviction risk in New Orleans
Set annual rent against average income of $14,980 and the ratio lands at 54%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Orleans Parish average of 51.4%.
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. At $670 a month, rents run 46% under what the rest of New Orleans commands.
Disability prevalence runs 57.4% against 31.5% nationally. The poverty rate is 51%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
99% 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. Housing insecurity runs 34.5% against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.4/10.
Against the Orleans Parish average of 5.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.
