Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Wornall Homestead
Average gross rent is $2,429, 96% above the Kansas City average. The voucher gap is 80.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
Cost burden runs 35% here against 43.0% across Jackson County. It sits 1.2 points below the Jackson County average of 4.2. Court records carry 25 eviction filings across 11 observed years.
Adults with no health insurance runs 3.9% against 11.3% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Filings peaked in 2011 at 6.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Greater Kansas City. 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 5.4% of renter households face a filing.
