Springbrook Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,377 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Springbrook is a one-tract neighborhood of Austell, GA and houses 4,377 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.6/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $2,175 a month, rents sit 46% over what the rest of Austell commands.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10. 20% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, lower than the Austell rate of 27.2%.

17% 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. The voucher gap is 18.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.7/10. At 14% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Hillsdale Heights and Sherwood Park. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $94,792.

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.
