Lakeside maps to a single census tract in Mableton, GA and houses 4,734 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Mableton baseline of 32.8%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
21% 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. Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.2/10.
21.6% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The filing record is not thin: 103 evictions logged in this tract.
14.3% 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. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 12.2% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $1,310, 11% below the Mableton average of $1,472. That places it #1 of 9 neighborhoods in Mableton. Judgments average 3.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a like-for-like read, Hillcrest Valley and Dunn Hill score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
