English Ave. spans 2 census tracts of Atlanta, GA, population 2,576. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 30.9% citywide, putting English Ave. 14.3% over its own city.
SNAP participation is 41.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.
The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. This is a renter market: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Average gross rent is $1,299, 24% below the Atlanta average of $1,711. Running hot is economic stress at 7.8/10. Court records for this tract carry 603 eviction filings.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 21.3% of renter households.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
