Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Doolittle
Average gross rent is $821, 30% above the Doolittle average. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Cost burden runs 33% here against 42.8% across Phelps County.
Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Phelps County average of 4.1. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.8/10.
Court records carry 69 eviction filings across 11 observed years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 3.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 18% of units are renter-occupied.

Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Against average income of $59,904, annual rent is just 16%. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
