Gueydan Eviction Risk: Moderate

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.9/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 0.6 points above the Vermilion Parish average of 4.3.

Average gross rent is $668, 11% below the Gueydan average. On the national scale it lands near the 59th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.1/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 35% of renters. Annual rent works out to 18% of average household income of $44,375.

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