Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kingston Village

The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Cost burden runs 34% here against 41.7% across Linn County.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10. Average gross rent is $1,145, 18% above the Cedar Rapids average.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. The voucher gap is 15.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 203 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2004 at 16.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 11.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Linn County average of 3.7 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $72,147.
