1 census tracts · pop 7,383 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10
· range 3–3
Bent Brooke maps to a single census tract in Auburn, AL and houses 7,383 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 44%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Average gross rent is $1,950, 78% above the Auburn average of $1,098. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10.
The voucher gap is 67.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.9/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 3.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Auburn rate of 38.9%.
That places it #5 of 6 neighborhoods in Auburn. Only 8% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $127,473, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
