Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West Harvey
Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 7.8/10.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.4/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 7.5/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 20.6% against 11.3% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 22.9% against 14.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 562 evictions over 15 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2012, when 9.1% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 7.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 77% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
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.
