Blackstone Eviction Risk: Moderate , Omaha

86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Douglas County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 1,573 eviction filings across 13 observed years. At $1,029 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Omaha commands.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 15.1% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Omaha. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 9.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
