Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Creekmont

30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10. At $1,872 a month, rents run 36% over what the rest of La Porte commands.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 22.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.6% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Court records carry 149 eviction filings across 7 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 12.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 8.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #52,479 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
