Analysis

What drives eviction risk in St. Andrews

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.4/10. The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.3/10. At $2,130 a month, rents run 20% over what the rest of Bear commands.

The voucher gap is 18.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10.

The filing record is not thin: 926 evictions over 9 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2017 at 16.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 12.7% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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.
