Analysis
What drives eviction risk in French Market
At $1,763 a month, rents run 41% over what the rest of New Orleans commands. What pushes it up most is regional political climate at 8.4/10. 18% 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. Against the Orleans Parish average of 5.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points.
The voucher gap is 19.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10.
Food insecurity runs 9.1% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 6.7% against 15.2% nationally.
Court records carry 96 eviction filings across 8 observed years. The worst year on record was 2008, when 3.3% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for New Orleans. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 2.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 44th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
