East Isles is a one-tract neighborhood of Minneapolis, MN, population 2,447. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.1/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Minneapolis baseline of 29.3%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
SNAP participation is 3.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 11 evictions logged in this tract. Average gross rent is $1,176, 14% below the Minneapolis average of $1,371. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 0.7% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 0.6% in 2013 against a 0.7% peak. Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Minneapolis, it ranks #51 by risk, the lower third.
Against average income of $92,500, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
