Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Harwich
91% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.6/10.
Average gross rent is $801, 25% below the Baton Rouge average. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10.
SNAP participation runs 25.7% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Housing insecurity runs 21.7% against 14.2% nationally.
Against the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. On the national scale it lands near the 59th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.2/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
