Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Alabaster
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10.
Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. SNAP participation runs 5.3% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 155 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally. The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 0.8 points below the Shelby County average of 3.8.
The voucher gap is 12.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Filings peaked in 2013 at 11.8% of renter households.
In a typical year about 6.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 10% 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. Social vulnerability reads 2.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
