The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.2/10. 14% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity affects 8.3% of adults, 9.5 points below the national rate. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 2.9% of renter households.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. At $1,208 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of Lincoln commands.
The most recent observed rate, 1.1% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 72 mapped neighborhoods of Lincoln, it ranks #43 by risk, the middle third.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
