Analysis
What drives eviction risk in North Indian Mound
The poverty rate is 45%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Disability prevalence runs 53.4% against 31.5% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 33.5% against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Cost burden runs 52% here against 43.0% across Jackson County. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.
Average gross rent is $988, 20% below the Kansas City average. It sits 1.2 points above the Jackson County average of 4.2. The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 396 filings here across 14 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2004 at 17.8% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Greater Kansas City. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
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.
