Normandy Forest is a one-tract neighborhood of Atlanta, GA and houses 5,770 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.6/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 53% against 30.9% citywide, putting Normandy Forest 22.1% over its own city.
28% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $49,803 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
At $1,373 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Atlanta commands. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 1,816 evictions logged in this tract.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 36.9% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 30.7% in 2016 against a 36.9% peak.
That places it #31 of 77 neighborhoods in Atlanta. For a like-for-like read, Hammond Park and Adams Park score within a fraction of it. 54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.6/10 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.
