Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenbriar
Against Marion County at 46.3%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. Against the Marion County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points.
SNAP participation runs 4.9% against 15.2% nationally. At $970 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Indianapolis commands.
Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.4/10.
Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $86,711, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
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.
