Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tract 37171930101

The clearest offset is state political climate at 2.3/10. On the softer side, local political climate reads 2.3/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.3/10.

12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 177 filings here across 18 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2003 at 17.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 6.9% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #44,239 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.9/10.

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.
