Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Waconia

The severe-burden share is 37%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Average gross rent is $2,038, 53% above the Waconia average.

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 2/10. The voucher gap is 21.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation runs 4.7% against 15.2% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.1/10. Housing insecurity runs 6.4% against 14.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 7% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 1.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $161,140, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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