This is a renter market: 84% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 22%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The filing record is not thin: 2,395 evictions logged in this tract. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 3/10.
Average gross rent is $1,083, 13% below the Kansas City average of $1,238. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 26.3% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 10.9% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 66 neighborhoods in Kansas City.
The closest comparables inside the same city are South Town Fork Creek and Independence Plaza. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $51,709.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
