Palisades is a one-tract neighborhood of Kennesaw, GA and houses 4,095 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Against a Kennesaw baseline of 33.7%, 9% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 27.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
At $2,327 a month, rents sit 26% over what the rest of Kennesaw commands. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10. Disability prevalence reaches 18.1% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.
Food insecurity affects 7.1% of adults, 10.7 points below the national rate. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of Kennesaw, it ranks #11 by risk, the lower third.
Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Lullwater and Hamby Place. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $129,432.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
