Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bellview
At $657 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Fairmont commands. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.9/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 22% 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 4.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $76,587, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
37% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Marion County average of 3.7 closely.
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.
