Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lees Ridge

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2.2/10. Average gross rent is $1,276, 17% above the Lincoln average.

SNAP participation runs 5.7% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Court records carry 99 eviction filings across 14 observed years.

It sits 0.8 points below the Lancaster County average of 3.8. The voucher gap is 13.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $97,841, annual rent is just 16%.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
