The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
It sits 1.0 points above the Kanawha County average of 3.9. Nationally it ranks #34,278 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
