Analysis

What drives eviction risk in La Avenida

Against Monroe County at 46.4%, 66% of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10.

SNAP participation runs 65.5% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 46%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Annualized rent equals 46% of average household income of $26,375, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. It sits 2.3 points above the Monroe County average of 7.2. Disability prevalence runs 50.5% against 31.5% nationally.

This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.1/10.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #2,657 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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