Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Reedsville
What moves this score most is rent-control risk at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 62nd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
