Riverdale is a one-tract neighborhood of Anoka, MN and houses 5,621 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. Against a Anoka baseline of 30.9%, 38% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.4/10.
Court records for this tract carry 107 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 5.5% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.9% in 2012, is well off that peak.
Against average income of $89,815, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,242, close to the Anoka average.
33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
