Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Morgan Place

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

Cost burden runs 60% here against 50.3% across East Baton Rouge Parish. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.7/10.

Against the East Baton Rouge Parish average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points. The voucher gap is 20.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

SNAP participation runs 7.8% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally.

At $1,469 a month, rents run 12% over what the rest of Central commands. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10. Statewide the LA average is 4.4, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
