Pinecrest Forest Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,587 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.5/10 · range 5.5–5.5

Pinecrest Forest maps to a single census tract in Morrow, GA and houses 5,587 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.5/10, in the Moderate tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10.

Against a Morrow baseline of 29.5%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 17.4% 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.

19.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10.

That places it #2 of 5 neighborhoods in Morrow. The closest comparables inside the same city are Beverly Hills and Park Forest. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Average gross rent runs $1,557, close to the Morrow average. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $58,565. 48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 5.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
