Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Paola

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

SNAP participation runs 6.3% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 5 filings here across 1 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2000 at 0.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 0.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $73,906, annual rent is just 17%.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 36% of renters.

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