Deerfield Eviction Risk: Moderate

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $44,104 and the ratio lands at 43%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The poverty rate is 29%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.

18.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.8/10.

Food insecurity affects 31.0% of adults, 13.2 points above the national rate. Average gross rent is $1,594, 14% above the Lithia Springs average of $1,402.

That places it #1 of 6 neighborhoods in Lithia Springs. For a like-for-like read, Brannons Branch and Heritage Square score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

63% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
