Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Carr's Hill

The score leans hardest on economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Clarke County average of 6.9 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

The tract is Black and White and ranks around the 89th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.

In CDC survey modeling, about 29.4% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 23.7% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
