Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fair Hill

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Court records carry 570 eviction filings across 14 observed years.

SNAP participation runs 7.0% against 15.2% nationally. Running cool, economic stress reads 2.9/10.

Food insecurity runs 9.8% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2006 at 5.7% of renter households.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Lincoln. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 3.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

40% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Lancaster County average of 3.8 closely.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
