Smiths Station Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10.

It sits 0.9 points below the Lee County average of 3.9. Average gross rent is $875, 14% below the Smiths Station average.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 2% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $78,324, annual rent is just 13%. Statewide the AL average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
