Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Shelbyville

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10.

That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 10% 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 2.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Shelby County average of 3.8 closely.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
