Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mobile

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Court records carry 16 eviction filings across 9 observed years. On the softer side, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10.

Food insecurity runs 24.8% against 17.8% nationally. The worst year on record was 2015, when 8.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 5.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.8/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Mobile County average of 4.0 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
