Blackstone Eviction Risk: Moderate , Omaha

SNAP participation runs 56.4% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 49%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 30.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. 58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Douglas County average of 44.0%.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. 69% 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.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. It sits 1.2 points above the Douglas County average of 3.9.

Court records carry 658 eviction filings across 13 observed years. At $1,068 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Omaha commands.

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