Oak Hill Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,521 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

Oak Hill is a one-tract neighborhood of St. Louis Park, MN and houses 3,521 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 28% of renter households.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.7/10. The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The filing record is not thin: 58 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 2.6% of renter households.

At $1,829 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of St. Louis Park commands. The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2013, is well off that peak. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of St. Louis Park, it ranks #8 by risk, the lower third.

Against average income of $111,125, annual rent is only 20%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
