Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Eastern 49/63
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. Disability prevalence runs 47.2% against 31.5% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 24.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.1/10.
The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Jackson County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.
At $1,022 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Kansas City commands. Court records carry 1,648 eviction filings across 14 observed years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 25.4% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.
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.
