What drives eviction risk in International Marketplace
Cost burden runs around a third here against 46.3% across Marion County. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. 24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Housing insecurity runs 32.7% against 14.2% nationally. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
The poverty rate is 30%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10.
Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. Against the Marion County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. Average gross rent is $951, 18% below the Indianapolis average.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
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.
