Powning Addition Eviction Risk: Moderate

7 census tracts · pop 17,755 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 3–5.5

Powning Addition spans 7 census tracts of Reno, NV and houses 17,755 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.9/10, Moderate tier. 51% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Reno rate of 31.3%.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 5.5, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. 22% 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 main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.7/10.

Court records carry 194 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Average gross rent is $1,329, 15% below the Reno average of $1,556.

Filing activity peaked in 2001 at 16.8% of renter households. That places it #6 of 26 neighborhoods in Reno. Judgments average 3.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, West Reno and Stead score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $69,072.

56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.9 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
