Elon Village Eviction Risk: Moderate , Albany

Set annual rent against average income of $14,232 and the ratio lands at 64%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 51%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.8/10.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 32.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Cost burden runs around two-thirds here against 50.4% across Dougherty County. Disability prevalence runs 50.5% against 31.5% nationally.

79% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Average gross rent is $763, 18% below the Albany average. The filing record is not thin: 228 evictions over 1 years of observation.

Against the Dougherty County average of 4.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. The worst year on record was 2003, when 26.2% of renter households were served.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
