Doral Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,833 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.7/10 · range 5.7–5.7

Doral Park maps to a single census tract in Atlanta, GA, population 1,833. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 80%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

86% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Atlanta rate of 30.9%. SNAP participation is 42.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 9.1/10.

24.3% 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. The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,271, 26% below the Atlanta average of $1,711. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.9/10.

Court records for this tract carry 1,535 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 71.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 24.2% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #1 of 77 neighborhoods in Atlanta. At 24% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

One tract means one number: 5.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
