Sherwood Park Neighborhood Eviction Risk: Moderate
5 census tracts · pop 24,979 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.4/10
· range 3–7.1
Sherwood Park Neighborhood takes in 5 census tracts of Maplewood, MN and houses 24,979 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.4/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Maplewood baseline of 31.7%, 52% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 7.1, a 4.1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. 20% 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.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. Court records carry 697 eviction filings across its 5 observed tracts.
On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.3/10. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 13.9% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,262, 10% below the Maplewood average of $1,406.
The most recent observed rate, 4.6% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Maplewood, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Battle Creek and Beaver Lake.
Against average income of $86,087, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 4.1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
