Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hastings

What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 5.8/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Dakota County average of 5.3 and below the Minnesota statewide average of 5.0. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
