West Minot Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,355 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

West Minot maps to a single census tract in Minot, ND and houses 5,355 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.4/10, Lower tier. 24% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10. The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

At $1,060 a month, rents sit 9% over what the rest of Minot commands. That places it #3 of 5 neighborhoods in Minot.

Against average income of $81,365, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
