Plymouth Colony Eviction Risk: Moderate

5 census tracts · pop 17,645 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 3.1–7

Plymouth Colony takes in 5 census tracts of Chamblee, GA, population 17,645. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 50% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Chamblee rate of 30.7%.

Scores across the 5 constituent tracts range from 3.1 to 7. A 3.9-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. This is a renter market: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10.

Court records carry 2,106 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 49.4% of renter households.

17.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Average gross rent is $1,697, 9% below the Chamblee average of $1,859. The most recent observed rate, 8.8% in 2016, is well off that peak.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Huntley Hills and Northwoods. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $84,065.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
