Analysis

What drives eviction risk in West Oaks

Cost burden runs 22% here against 34.0% across Ward County. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. SNAP participation runs 5.3% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 0.6 points below the Ward County average of 3.6. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $98,592, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,030, close to the Minot average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
