Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Taylor Square

95% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $44,424, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. It sits 1.7 points above the Fairfield County average of 4.0.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.4/10. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.2/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 74th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.4/10.
