Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ephesus Heights
The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.8/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.7/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10.
The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.2 points below the Douglas County average of 4.2. At $1,842 a month, rents run 19% over what the rest of Villa Rica commands.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10. Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $110,082.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
