Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Scottsboro
The dominant input is supply constraint at 9.6/10. 49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Jackson County average of 35.8%. Average gross rent is $1,125, 36% above the Scottsboro average.
On the softer side, regional political climate reads 1.6/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Jackson County average of 3.9 closely.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $52,543.
