Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Greenwood

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 7.9/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Food insecurity runs 28.6% against 17.8% nationally.

It sits 0.7 points below the Leflore County average of 4.8. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $52,188, annual rent is just 16%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
