Analysis
What drives eviction risk in McKinley Terrace
Cost burden runs 29% here against 41.2% across St. Joseph County. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.8/10. Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 62 evictions over 1 years of observation.
Against the St. Joseph County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points. SNAP participation runs 8.1% against 15.2% nationally.
Filings peaked in 2015 at 10.5% of renter households. 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. In a typical year about 10.5% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
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.
