Innswood Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,354 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Innswood maps to a single census tract in Hattiesburg, MS, population 6,354. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, Moderate tier. Against a Hattiesburg baseline of 30.7%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 27% 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.

The poverty rate is 25%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.5/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

At $912 a month, rents sit 9% under what the rest of Hattiesburg commands. That places it #9 of 11 neighborhoods in Hattiesburg. The closest comparables inside the same city are Woodlawn Court and Mars Hill.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 4.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
