Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Elkhorn

What moves this score most is supply constraint at 5.4/10. 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 below the Douglas County average of 4.8 and in line with the Nebraska statewide average of 3.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 152 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 7.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 13.1% of renter households in 2006.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 15th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
