Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hutton Park

What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 7.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

The tract is Black and White and ranks around the 55th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

Princeton eviction risk's Eviction Lab logged 332 eviction filings here over 6 tracked years, with about 6.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 7.5% of renter households in 2013.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
