North Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,638 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

North Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Greenwood, MS, population 5,638. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. At $984 a month, rents sit 45% over what the rest of Greenwood commands.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10. 25% 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. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.9/10.

Against a Greenwood baseline of 30.8%, 37% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10.

At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
