Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 21211040101
The heaviest input here is eviction process difficulty at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Shelby County average of 4.3 and below the Kentucky statewide average of 4.7. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 36th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 7 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 1.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 1.4% of renter households in 2006.
For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
