What drives eviction risk in Broad Ripple
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. 36% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well below the Marion County average of 46.3%.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. The voucher gap is 21.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. SNAP participation runs 5.6% against 15.2% nationally. 11% 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 10.2% against 17.8% nationally. 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. On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.7/10, 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.
