Ogeecheeton Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,086 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Ogeecheeton maps to a single census tract in Savannah, GA and houses 2,086 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Savannah baseline of 33.4%, 21% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

SNAP participation is 29.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 17.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Court records for this tract carry 21 eviction filings.

11% 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. Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 10.6% of renter households. At $1,539 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of Savannah commands.

That places it #19 of 21 neighborhoods in Savannah. Judgments average 4.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Norwood Court and Hudson Hill / Bayview.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3.6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
