Vel Manor is a 2-tract neighborhood of Mableton, GA, population 11,127. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Mableton baseline of 32.8%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. Average gross rent is $1,804, 23% above the Mableton average of $1,472.
Disability prevalence reaches 17.9% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.1/10.
That places it #8 of 9 neighborhoods in Mableton. Only 9% 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 Ivey Terrace and Ford Heights.
Against average income of $152,912, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
