Struwe Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,752 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

Struwe is a one-tract neighborhood of Lincoln, NE, population 2,752. The Eviction Risk Score is 5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Lincoln baseline of 28.9%, 62% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 26% 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. Average gross rent is $1,328, 22% above the Lincoln average of $1,086.

The poverty rate is 23%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The voucher gap is 18.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 486 evictions logged in this tract.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. SNAP participation is 25.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 20.8% of renter households.

On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10. 18.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The most recent observed rate, 6.5% in 2016, is well off that peak.

Among the 72 mapped neighborhoods of Lincoln, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Hyland Park and Hillsdale.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
