Severe burden reaches 27%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10.
The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Average gross rent is $1,587, 15% below the Belgrade average of $1,877.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.6/10. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $86,464. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
