South Haven Eviction Risk: Moderate

51% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Porter County average of 38.1%. The clearest offset is state political climate at 2/10.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. The voucher gap is 20.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 13 filings here across 2 tracked years.

On the high side, supply constraint reads 7/10. At $1,436 a month, rents run 11% over what the rest of South Haven commands. Filings peaked in 2014 at 11.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 8.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.5/10, 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.

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.
