Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Graysville

Pulling hardest the other way is state political climate at 1.8/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10.

Food insecurity runs 27.3% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 95 eviction filings across 11 observed years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 4.1% of renter households were served. At $1,021 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Graysville commands. In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 53% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
