Young Forte Village Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 3,989 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

Young Forte Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Montgomery, AL, population 3,989. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, in the Moderate tier. 51% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Montgomery rate of 32.3%.

36% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation is 46.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 48.2% of adults, 30.4 points above the national rate. Set annual rent against average household income of $29,692 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

The poverty rate is 37%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.7/10. Filings are well documented here: 496 across 2 observed tracts.

The worst year on record was 2008, when filings touched 11.3% of renter households. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 3/10.

At $985 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Montgomery commands.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
