Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Jefferson

Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.4/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

On the national scale it lands near the 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

It tracks the Jefferson Parish average of 4.3 closely. Average gross rent is $1,083, close to the Jefferson average.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $53,750. 33% 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.
