Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Shaw
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. 31% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Bolivar County average of 44.4%.
The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.5/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10.
Housing insecurity runs 28.2% against 14.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 9.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Bolivar County average of 4.5 closely. Average gross rent is $547, close to the Shaw average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
