Ewing Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,576 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Ewing maps to a single census tract in Springfield, MO and houses 2,576 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, Moderate tier. 48% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Springfield rate of 29.4%.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 83% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.

The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. That places it #1 of 25 neighborhoods in Springfield.

Average gross rent runs $957, close to the Springfield average.

One tract means one number: 4.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
