Analysis

What drives eviction risk in West End

At $1,836 a month, rents run 47% over what the rest of New Orleans commands. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.3/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. The voucher gap is 24.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

It sits 1.5 points below the Orleans Parish average of 5.4. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10. SNAP participation runs 4.8% against 15.2% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 7.1% against 14.2% nationally.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3/10.

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