Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Riley

At $765 a month, rents run 36% under what the rest of Riley commands. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. SNAP participation runs 4.4% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 7.9% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 0.9 points below the Riley County average of 3.9. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $90,582, annual rent is just 10%. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
