Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Martha Lake

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.4/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.8/10. Court records carry 26 eviction filings across 5 observed years.

On the softer side, court filing pressure reads 2.9/10. Filings peaked in 2015 at 1.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $141,250, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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.
