In CDC survey modeling, about 28.8% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 23.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
The tract is predominantly Black and ranks around the 69th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
