What drives eviction risk in Ewing
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 nearby. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $32,297, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.
Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.
The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Cost burden runs 48% here against 41.2% across Greene County.
Against the Greene County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the MO average is 3.8, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
Average gross rent is $957, close to the Springfield average.
