Lillian Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,568 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Lillian maps to a single census tract in Sioux Falls, SD, population 5,568. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.2/10. The voucher gap is 27.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

At $1,311 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of Sioux Falls commands. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10. Against a Sioux Falls baseline of 26.5%, 33% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 9%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. That places it #23 of 26 neighborhoods in Sioux Falls.

For a like-for-like read, Hill Ridge Development and Galway Park score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
