Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Anniston

What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 8.2/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Anniston eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Calhoun County average of 4.7 and above the Alabama statewide average of 4.5. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 25.3% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 18.4% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 146 eviction filings here over 14 tracked years, with about 3.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.0% of renter households in 2010.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
