Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Moss Side Place

Average gross rent is $1,636, 53% above the Baton Rouge average. The voucher gap is 33.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 50.3%.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 8.4/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10. That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. It tracks the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3 closely.

Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $61,508. 57% 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.
