Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Murray

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

SNAP participation runs 5.2% against 15.2% nationally. Court records carry 105 eviction filings across 9 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 5.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 3.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.5/10. Against average income of $102,940, annual rent is just 17%.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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