Clifton Eviction Risk: Lower , Indianapolis

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.7/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10.

Average gross rent is $1,010, 13% below the Indianapolis average. It sits 0.7 points below the Marion County average of 4.2. 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
