Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Scott

On the high side, economic stress reads 7.6/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10. The voucher gap is 14.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Average gross rent is $1,209, 15% above the Scott average. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 4.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
