ZIP 55342 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

On DLRadar's 0-100 distress scale, ZIP 55342 in Renville County, Minnesota comes in at 19, a low composite-distress reading. It additionally carries heavy environmental risk: FEMA disaster exposure (60/100). The split runs 43/100 structural to 4/100 active on the ground. Property-level stress concentrates in construction/permit lag (72/100), structural risk (43/100), institutional ownership (33/100). By contrast, institutional ownership (33/100) and mortgage stress (15/100) register low.

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 3.4% over the trailing year, and 22% higher over three years (phase confidence 28/100). Near a top, distress surfaces unevenly, so parcel screening beats headline strength.

Households earn a median $63,257 — below the roughly $78,000 national figure. DLRadar's demographic-stress index for the area reads 26/100. Population is roughly 1,884 with a median age of 41.

Taken together, 55342 profiles as an active-distress market where motivated-seller and below-market acquisitions concentrate. While 55342 carries no listed distressed parcels today, each signal above ties back to a public dataset on the same national scale.

Big metro or rural, 55342 runs through one identical scoring model, so its 19/100 sits on the same scale as every other ZIP in Renville County, Minnesota and the nation. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 55342, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 55342'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, 55342 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.
