Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Cotner Terrace
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. 18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. 52% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Lancaster County average of 43.9%.
Average gross rent is $857, 21% below the Lincoln average. Food insecurity runs 8.6% against 17.8% nationally.
SNAP participation runs 6.0% against 15.2% nationally. Court records carry 131 eviction filings across 14 observed years. It sits 0.8 points below the Lancaster County average of 3.8.
Filings peaked in 2016 at 4.3% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
