Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ladue

The heaviest input here is supply constraint at 9.9/10. 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 Ladue, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores well below the St. Louis County average of 5.6 and below the Missouri statewide average of 4.8. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 27 eviction filings here over 8 tracked years, with about 6.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.2% of renter households in 2005.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 0.56x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, well below the pre-pandemic norm, the signature of an eviction moratorium at work.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
