Celanese is a one-tract neighborhood of Rome, GA, population 4,515. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10.
The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.
This is a renter market: 67% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The poverty rate is 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Against a Rome baseline of 31.2%, 38% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 1,253 evictions logged in this tract.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 22.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 25.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 26.8% of renter households.
Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Rome, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 6.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.7/10 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.
