Analysis

What drives eviction risk in New Orleans

Annualized rent equals 107% of average household income of $11,631, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 54%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Housing insecurity runs 37.2% against 14.2% nationally.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 32.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. 76% 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.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10. Against the Orleans Parish average of 5.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

Average gross rent is $1,038, 17% below the New Orleans average. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 231 filings here across 8 tracked years.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
