Kid Alley Residential Historic District Eviction Risk: Moderate

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.2/10. The poverty rate is 31%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

Against a Phenix City baseline of 32.7%, 40% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 26.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 30.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 679 evictions logged in this tract.

Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 15.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 4.6% in 2016, is well off that peak.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
