Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bentonville
Against Benton County at 30.1%, 43% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.
On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 1.4/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
SNAP participation runs 4.4% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,137, 15% below the Bentonville average.
Food insecurity runs 9.3% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Benton County average of 3.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Social vulnerability reads 4.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $89,284, annual rent is just 15%.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
