Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Arbor Terrace
The score leans hardest on economic stress at 6.2/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Bel-Nor, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the St. Louis County average of 5.6 and above the Missouri statewide average of 4.8. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.96x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, a little under the pre-pandemic norm.
In CDC survey modeling, about 30.6% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 25.3% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
