Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Little Five Points
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Against the DeKalb County average of 4.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.5 points. Cost burden runs 44% here against 52.2% across DeKalb County.
The filing record is not thin: 294 evictions over 8 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 6.0% against 14.2% nationally.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2013 at 12.4% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 7.1% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 21% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.1/10.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
