Analysis
What drives eviction risk in New Orleans
roughly two in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Orleans Parish average of 51.4%. Housing insecurity runs 38.4% against 14.2% nationally.
Set annual rent against average income of $31,304 and the ratio lands at 44%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The dominant input is economic stress at 8.7/10.
The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10. It sits 1.3 points above the Orleans Parish average of 5.4.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 154 filings here across 7 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.2% against 11.3% nationally.
