Hi-Pointe maps to a single census tract in St. Louis, MO, population 3,450. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for roughly one in four of renter households.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. At $1,224 a month, rents sit 23% over what the rest of St. Louis commands.
The severe-burden share is 14%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Court records for this tract carry 283 eviction filings.
SNAP participation is 5.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.6% of adults, 9.2 points below the national rate. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 3.2% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 0.7% in 2017, is well off that peak. Among the 69 mapped neighborhoods of St. Louis, it ranks #55 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, Downtown and Boulevard Heights score within a fraction of it.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $71,038. 53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
