Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Chickasaw

Average gross rent is $558, 42% below the Chickasaw average. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 1.7 points above the Mobile County average of 4.0. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 134 filings here across 10 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2013, when 7.1% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #21,564 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 7.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $51,379, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the AL average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

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.
