Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Rivermeade
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 5.9/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Fulton County average of 5.7 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
In CDC survey modeling, about 6.2% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 4.0% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 368 eviction filings here over 5 tracked years, with about 42.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 71.9% of renter households in 2016.
