Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Riverside Hills
36% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. SNAP participation runs 68.4% against 15.2% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 38.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The poverty rate is 73%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10.
Average gross rent is $673, 37% below the Macon-Bibb County average. 81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.
Against the Bibb County average of 4.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Against Bibb County at 51.4%, 57% of renters here are cost-burdened. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 654 filings here across 8 tracked years.
The worst year on record was 2006, when 25.9% of renter households were served.
