Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Beechwood

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9.8/10. SNAP participation runs 39.6% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Food insecurity runs 41.2% against 17.8% nationally. Annualized rent equals 45% of average household income of $29,762, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

Against the Douglas County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. Court records carry 797 eviction filings across 13 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 22.5% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 16.4% of renter households face a filing.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
