Analysis
What drives eviction risk in College Grandview District
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 7.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Dubuque eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Dubuque County average of 4.8 and above the Iowa statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 14 eviction filings here over 3 tracked years, with about 2.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.9% of renter households in 2005.
In CDC survey modeling, about 7.6% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 4.9% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
