Mountainburg Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs roughly one in four here against 38.3% across Crawford County. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.5/10.

At $588 a month, rents run 22% under what the rest of Mountainburg commands. It sits 0.9 points above the Crawford County average of 3.6. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 11% of average household income of $62,399, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
