Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Scott

The severe-burden share is 31%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The main counterweight is state political climate at 2.3/10. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

It sits 1.4 points above the Lafayette Parish average of 4.0. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10.

Average gross rent is $874, 17% below the Scott average. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Statute speed, court posture and rent-regulation exposure are inherited from Scott rather than measured on these blocks; the economic and supply components are the tract-level part of the score.

Social vulnerability reads 8.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the LA average is 4.4, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $42,302.

29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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