Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Levassor Park

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.7/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10.

31% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Kenton County average of 37.9%. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Covington. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 3.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $78,885, annual rent is just 15%.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Kenton County average of 3.8 closely. Average gross rent is $983, close to the Covington average.

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