Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Beechwood
The heaviest input here is economic stress at 8.9/10. 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 Omaha eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Douglas County average of 4.8 and above the Nebraska statewide average of 3.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 411 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 10.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 12.8% of renter households in 2014.
HOLC surveyors mapped this tract in the 1930s with a dominant grade of C ("Declining"), above the redlined D tier. The grading still shaped decades of lending and development in the surrounding area.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
