Bingham Eviction Risk: Lower , Springfield

Cost burden runs 52% here against 41.2% across Greene County. The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10. At $790 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Springfield commands.

The filing record is not thin: 1,052 evictions over 9 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2017, when 8.6% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Springfield. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 7.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. It tracks the Greene County average of 3.7 closely.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $41,817.

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.
