Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Crystal Bay

Against the Hennepin County average of 5.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.0 points. What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10.

Running cool, economic stress reads 2.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.4/10. Housing insecurity runs 5.4% against 14.2% nationally.

At $1,569 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Orono commands. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10. Rent consumes only 8% of average household income of $225,337, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the MN average is 4.5, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
