ZIP code 71251 in Jackson County, Louisiana carries a composite property-distress score of 16/100 — a low reading on DLRadar's deterministic public-record index. Climate and flood risk are elevated too — FEMA disaster exposure (78/100). The most distinctive pressure shows up in construction/permit lag (50/100), institutional ownership (43/100), structural risk (35/100). By contrast, structural risk (35/100) and mortgage stress (20/100) register low. Latent structural risk is 35/100 while live distress already moving reads 6/100.

The market reads contraction — home values held roughly flat year on year, 2.3% off the recent peak, and 30% higher over three years (phase confidence 36/100). A cooling market tends to open discount-to-value windows.

Owners hold 64% of homes, renters 36%. Vacancy runs 24.1%, above the national norm and a classic distress-and-opportunity signal. The typical home is worth about $104,100 (2.5× income, relatively affordable). The ZIP holds roughly 3,764 housing units. 7,724 residents call 71251 home, typically aged 40. The poverty rate is 28.5% — high, a tax-stress and distress correlate. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 34/100. Rent burden reaches 36% of tenant households. Median household income is $38,902, below the U.S. median near $78,000. Educational attainment sits at 14% bachelor's-or-above.

On the whole, 71251 leans distressed, with opportunity clustered in specific stressed parcels. While 71251 carries no listed distressed parcels today, each signal above ties back to a public dataset on the same national scale.

Whether 71251 runs hot or quiet, its 16/100 composite is built the same deterministic way as every ZIP in the country — from recorded foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, climate and lender signals — so 71251 can be compared directly against any other ZIP in Jackson County, Louisiana or nationwide. Sparse data for 71251 shows as blanks, never estimates, and the score updates on every fresh public filing.
