Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Meadowbrook

The score leans hardest on economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

In CDC survey modeling, about 28.4% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 26.6% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

The tract is White and Black and ranks around the 1000th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
