Knob Hill maps to a single census tract in Carrollton, GA and houses 5,149 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.6/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Carrollton baseline of 34.7%, roughly two in three of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. 29% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.7/10.
Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,333, 22% above the Carrollton average of $1,089.
The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 18.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Carrollton, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Double Branches and Leisure Heights. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $55,346. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
