East Omaha Eviction Risk: Lower , Council Bluffs

The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty at 2/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. At $1,115 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Carter Lake commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 176 filings here across 4 tracked years.

That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 11.1% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $75,037, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
