Fulton Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 12,041 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

Fulton is a 3-tract neighborhood of Minneapolis, MN and houses 12,041 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Average gross rent is $1,942, 42% above the Minneapolis average of $1,371.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.1/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Cost burden runs around a third against 29.3% citywide, putting Fulton 6.5% over its own city.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 3.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The voucher gap is 15.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Filings are well documented here: 68 across 3 observed tracts.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 5.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.3% in 2013, is well off that peak.

That places it #69 of 75 neighborhoods in Minneapolis. At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

With little internal variation, 5.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
