Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Olivette

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. It tracks the St. Louis County average of 4.0 closely.
