Quails Nest Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 7,405 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 3.8–5.1

Quails Nest takes in 2 census tracts of Powder Springs, GA and houses 7,405 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.4/10.

Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.8 to 5.1, a 1.3-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

Against a Powder Springs baseline of 33.8%, 40% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Court records for this tract carry 54 eviction filings.

The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 18.9% of renter households. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10.

At $1,713 a month, rents sit 8% over what the rest of Powder Springs commands. That places it #3 of 5 neighborhoods in Powder Springs. Judgments average 8.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, Cumberland Forest and Country Lake score within a fraction of it.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
