ZIP 70420 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

ZIP code 70420 in St. Tammany County, Louisiana carries a composite property-distress score of 35/100 — a moderate reading on DLRadar's deterministic public-record index. Environmental exposure also runs high (climate & FEMA risk (97/100), FEMA disaster exposure (96/100), flood (NFIP) exposure (92/100)). The split runs 78/100 structural to 8/100 active on the ground. The pressure is most legible in structural risk (78/100), institutional ownership (73/100), construction/permit lag (42/100). On the quiet end sit mortgage stress (27/100).

The market reads recovery — home values rose 2.6% year on year, and 9% higher over three years, at 34/100 phase confidence. Rising prices can mask pockets of distress, where per-parcel scoring earns its keep.

Roughly 10.6% live below the poverty line. Owners hold 84% of homes, renters 16%. Households earn a median $72,180 — near the roughly $78,000 national figure.

Overall, 70420 shows a mixed profile — neither uniformly stressed nor insulated — so opportunity is property-specific. Every signal above traces to a verifiable public dataset, refreshed continuously and scored the same way in every ZIP nationwide.

The number is not local guesswork: 70420's 35/100 comes from the same nationwide foreclosure, tax, mortgage and lender model, making it directly comparable anywhere. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 70420 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.
