Van Buren Eviction Risk: Lower

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. 14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

At $1,007 a month, rents run 19% over what the rest of Van Buren commands. That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. 41% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Crawford County average of 3.6 closely.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $58,040. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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