Presidents Eviction Risk: Elevated

3 census tracts · pop 12,471 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.4/10 · range 5.1–7

Presidents is a 3-tract neighborhood of Hopkins, MN, population 12,471. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.4/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10.

41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Hopkins rate of 29.3%. Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 5.1 to 7. A 1.9-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.3/10.

Court records for this tract carry 282 eviction filings. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 6.1% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $1,299, 12% below the Hopkins average of $1,468. The most recent observed rate, 1.9% in 2013, is well off that peak. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
