Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Thorp
18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The main counterweight is court filing pressure at 2.5/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10.
The filing record is not thin: 41 evictions over 15 years of observation. Average gross rent is $909, 15% above the Thorp average.
Running cool, state political climate reads 2.9/10. The worst year on record was 2012, when 1.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 0.8% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 20% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.2/10. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $61,652, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
