Hillsdale maps to a single census tract in Lincoln, NE and houses 4,618 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 28.9% citywide, putting Hillsdale 13.2% over its own city.
At $675 a month, rents sit 38% under what the rest of Lincoln commands. This is a renter market: 87% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1/10. 25% 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. The poverty rate is 26%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The filing record is not thin: 1,794 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 6.8% of renter households.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. Food insecurity affects 25.8% of adults, 8.0 points above the national rate. Recent filings have not receded much: 5.6% in 2016 against a 6.8% peak.
Among the 72 mapped neighborhoods of Lincoln, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
One tract means one number: 5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
