Miracle Mile Eviction Risk: Moderate

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.9/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.1/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Court records carry 253 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

Average gross rent is $750, 12% below the Springfield average of $851. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 7.3% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 4.5% in 2018 against a 7.3% peak.

Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Springfield, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Snyder Terrace and South Fountain Avenue Historic District score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.7 points apart at the extremes.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
