Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Czech Village

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 5.1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Cedar Rapids 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 Linn County average of 4.7 and above the Iowa statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 268 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 8.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 10.0% of renter households in 2006.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 40th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
