Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining").

In a typical year about 7.3% of renter households face a filing.
