ZIP 39149 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

Simpson County, Mississippi's ZIP 39149 registers 12/100 composite distress, which DLRadar reads as minimal. Environmental exposure also runs high (flood (NFIP) exposure (61/100)). The sharpest non-environmental signals are structural risk (26/100), institutional ownership (14/100), mortgage stress (9/100). By contrast, institutional ownership (14/100) and mortgage stress (9/100) register low. The latent-versus-live split is 26/100 structural and 3/100 already moving.

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 1.9% over the trailing year, 2.2% off the recent peak (phase confidence 27/100). Near a top, distress surfaces unevenly, so parcel screening beats headline strength.

Households earn a median $51,875 — below the roughly $78,000 national figure. Vacancy runs 30.7%, above the national norm and a classic distress-and-opportunity signal. The poverty rate is 12.9%. 86% of housing is owner-occupied. There are about 705 housing units across 39149. Population is roughly 1,080 with a median age of 44. Around 2% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher. A median home runs $75,000 here, or 1.8 times local income. On demographic stress specifically, 39149 scores 38/100.

Net-net, 39149 is a working-distress ZIP — the kind that rewards current, parcel-level intelligence. Every signal above traces to a verifiable public dataset, refreshed continuously and scored the same way in every ZIP nationwide.

The 39149 read uses the identical scoring model applied coast to coast, which means its 12/100 score means exactly what it means anywhere else, and 39149 stays directly comparable to neighboring ZIPs and the rest of Simpson County, Mississippi. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 39149, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 39149's composite sit distinct signals (foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, lender and structural), each scored on its own before rolling up, so two ZIPs with the same total can describe very different situations on the ground. For a buyer, 39149 is one row in a larger workflow: confirm the score, pull the distressed parcels behind it, then move from signal to funded, closed acquisition through DLRadar.
