Malone maps to a single census tract in Albany, GA, population 2,429. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 46%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Annualized rent equals 66% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against a Albany baseline of 29.7%, 68% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 39.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 74%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
Disability prevalence reaches 47.9% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Among the 14 mapped neighborhoods of Albany, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
For a like-for-like read, Pecan Haven and Elon Village score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $893, close to the Albany average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
