In a typical year about 11.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #44,239 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
