What drives eviction risk in Woodlawn
SNAP participation runs 43.1% against 15.2% nationally. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9.1/10. 84% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Against the Providence County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.6 points.
Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 20.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 154 evictions over 2 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2016, when 5.1% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 4.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #11,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
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.
