Louisville Eviction Risk: Moderate

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.8/10.

Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The filing record is not thin: 3,118 evictions over 14 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,271, 13% above the Louisville average.

Filings peaked in 2002 at 36.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 21.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #45,786 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.8/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

41% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Jefferson County average of 4.0 closely. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $60,502.

47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
