Far Eastside Eviction Risk: Lower , Indianapolis

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10.

13% 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 27.0% against 17.8% nationally.

about half of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Marion County average of 46.3%. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

At $1,011 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Indianapolis commands. That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Marion County average of 4.2 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $65,034.

53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
