Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tatumsville
The heaviest input here is economic stress at 6.4/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 255 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 48.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 48.0% of renter households in 2011.
In CDC survey modeling, about 32.9% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 24.4% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
