Mountain Creek takes in 2 census tracts of Tucker, GA and houses 6,697 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3 to 5.7. A 2.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.7/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.4/10.
Severe burden reaches 18%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10. 18.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Tucker, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 40% of renter households.
Average gross rent runs $1,610, close to the Tucker average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $78,854. 39% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.2 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.
