West Main Street Historic District Eviction Risk: Moderate

The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.

The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.5 to 4.5, a 1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Court records carry 91 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 5.6% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.6% in 2017, is well off that peak. Against average income of $62,160, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.

Average gross rent runs $802, close to the Norwalk average. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 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.
