Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hugo

88% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Washington County average of 44.0%. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.7/10. SNAP participation runs 5.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 8.0% against 17.8% nationally. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 3/10.

Average gross rent is $1,676, 11% below the Hugo average. Nationally it ranks #52,479 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.9/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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