Ventura Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Minneapolis, MN and houses 6,532 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 8/10, placing it in the High tier. Against a Minneapolis baseline of 29.3%, about half of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
SNAP participation is 41.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. This is a renter market: 89% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1/10.
At $909 a month, rents sit 34% under what the rest of Minneapolis commands. The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The poverty rate is 31%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. 21.9% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. On the high side is economic stress at 7.7/10.
Court records carry 420 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2009, when filings touched 6.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.4% in 2013, is well off that peak.
With little internal variation, 8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
