Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Minnetonka

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. It sits 2.1 points below the Hennepin County average of 5.1. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 5.5% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 3.3% against 15.2% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.4/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.2/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 16 filings here across 5 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2009 at 2.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.5/10. Against average income of $161,458, annual rent is just 14%.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
