Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gueydan

The score leans hardest on housing court bias at 9.2/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Gueydan, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Vermilion County average of 4.8 and in line with the Louisiana statewide average of 4.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 13.8% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 10.1% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 68th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
