Wydown Skinker Eviction Risk: Lower

Against a Clayton baseline of 24.3%, 34% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,328, 22% below the Clayton average of $1,692.

Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 47 evictions logged in this tract.

SNAP participation is 4.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 1.6% of renter households.

4.9% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The most recent observed rate, 0.5% in 2017, is well off that peak.

Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.7 points apart at the extremes. 55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

With little internal variation, 3.5/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
