Lokchapee maps to a single census tract in Macon-Bibb County, GA and houses 4,880 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 8.4/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.6/10.
Against a Macon-Bibb County baseline of 34.7%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The filing record is not thin: 1,411 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2007, when filings touched 40.1% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 11.6% in 2011, is well off that peak. Average gross rent is $1,151, 8% above the Macon-Bibb County average of $1,066. Among the 31 mapped neighborhoods of Macon-Bibb County, it ranks #26 by risk, the lower third.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
