Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Park Village
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Cost burden runs 35% here against 44.6% across Union County. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 45.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 20.4% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #21,564 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
