Loring Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 5,798 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.8/10 · range 7.7–8

Loring Park spans 2 census tracts of Minneapolis, MN, population 5,798. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.8/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. 45% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Minneapolis rate of 29.3%.

77% 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. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. 19% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. Filings are well documented here: 328 across 2 observed tracts.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10. The poverty rate is 17%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 4.1% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $1,217, 11% below the Minneapolis average of $1,371. The most recent observed rate, 1.8% in 2013, is well off that peak.

Among the 75 mapped neighborhoods of Minneapolis, it ranks #26 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Marshall Terrace and Mid-City Industrial score within a fraction of it. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes.

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.
