Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Natchez

Cost burden runs 64% here against 35.8% across Adams County. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,049, 30% above the Natchez average.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.7/10. The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Food insecurity runs 29.9% against 17.8% nationally. The voucher gap is 12.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 55% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
