Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Richmond

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.4/10.

Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Wayne County average of 3.9, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.9 points.

SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $61,487, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the IN average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $840, close to the Richmond average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
