Kings Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10. SNAP participation is 35.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Food insecurity affects 36.6% of adults, 18.8 points above the national rate. Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.4/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 985 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 21.6% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 11.2% in 2011, is well off that peak. That places it #13 of 31 neighborhoods in Macon-Bibb County.

For a like-for-like read, Christian Rest and Hillcrest Heights score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,058, close to the Macon-Bibb County average.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $47,965.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.9/10 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.
