Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Howe
What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Average gross rent is $994, 27% below the Minneapolis average. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 17 filings here across 5 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2009 at 10.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 5.0% of renter households face a filing.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
