Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Auburn

68% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Lee County average of 46.8%. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 2.5/10.

That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Lee County average of 3.9 closely. Average gross rent is $1,132, close to the Auburn average.

Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $54,342.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
