Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Northeast
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Kansas City eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores well below the Wyandotte County average of 5.2 and below the Kansas statewide average of 4.2. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 32 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 13.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 13.5% of renter households in 2016.
The tract is Hispanic or Latino and Black and ranks around the 47th 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, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
