Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Warehouse District
73% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Jefferson Parish average of 47.9%. It sits 3.0 points above the Jefferson Parish average of 4.3.
What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 9.1/10.
At $737 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Gretna commands. Food insecurity runs 31.1% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 87th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the LA average is 4.4, so this tract runs 2.9 points hotter.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
