Glenwood Forest maps to a single census tract in Macon-Bibb County, GA and houses 4,420 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. 51% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Macon-Bibb County rate of 34.7%.
The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.4/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,300, 22% above the Macon-Bibb County average of $1,066.
Court records for this tract carry 1,230 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 22.8% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 12.3% in 2011, is well off that peak. Among the 31 mapped neighborhoods of Macon-Bibb County, it ranks #20 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Lindsey Park and Forest Lake score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $52,365.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.8/10 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.
