Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Plum Orchard

Set annual rent against average income of $42,357 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The dominant input is regional political climate at 8.4/10. Housing insecurity runs 31.5% against 14.2% nationally.

22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

47% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Orleans Parish average of 51.4%. At $1,369 a month, rents run 9% over what the rest of New Orleans commands.

That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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