Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Maplewood

The score leans hardest on housing court bias at 6.3/10. 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 Sulphur eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Calcasieu County average of 4.6 and below the Louisiana statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 9.9% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 6.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 48th 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, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
