Windom Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 10,152 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.1/10 · range 4.7–7.2

Windom takes in 2 census tracts of Minneapolis, MN, population 10,152. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.1/10, Elevated tier. Against a Minneapolis baseline of 29.3%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 4.7 to 7.2, a 2.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.2/10.

21% 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. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.7/10.

Filings are well documented here: 439 across 2 observed tracts. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 7.9% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.9% in 2013, is well off that peak. That places it #51 of 75 neighborhoods in Minneapolis. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Average gross rent runs $1,336, close to the Minneapolis average. 46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
