Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Plainfield

about half of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Hendricks County average of 39.9%. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,105, 26% below the Plainfield average.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10. SNAP participation runs 5.9% against 15.2% nationally.

10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Food insecurity runs 10.6% against 17.8% nationally. Nationally it ranks #48,956 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6/10. Against average income of $86,298, annual rent is just 15%.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Hendricks County average of 3.6 closely. 27% 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.
