Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Twickenham Historic District

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Food insecurity runs 5.2% against 17.8% nationally.

Cost burden runs 47% here against 39.4% across Madison County. At $1,375 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of Huntsville commands.

Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 32 filings here across 12 tracked years.

Against the Madison County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

The worst year on record was 2005, when 2.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
