Como Eviction Risk: High

2 census tracts · pop 6,604 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8/10 · range 8–8

Como takes in 2 census tracts of Minneapolis, MN and houses 6,604 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 8/10, in the High tier. Severe burden reaches 51%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Cost burden runs 71% against 29.3% citywide, putting Como 42.1% over its own city. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 60%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Set annual rent against average household income of $39,032 and the ratio lands at 46%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 90% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. Food insecurity affects 30.7% of adults, 12.9 points above the national rate. Court records for this tract carry 23 eviction filings.

SNAP participation is 26.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 0.9% of renter households. At $1,510 a month, rents sit 10% over what the rest of Minneapolis commands. Recent filings have not receded much: 0.8% in 2013 against a 0.9% peak.

That places it #1 of 75 neighborhoods in Minneapolis.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
