Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Inver Grove Heights
Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 65% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against Dakota County at 45.6%, 41% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 357 filings here across 5 tracked years. SNAP participation runs 7.7% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2009, when 6.3% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.3/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
It tracks the Dakota County average of 4.2 closely. Average gross rent is $1,515, close to the Inver Grove Heights average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
