1 census tracts · pop 1,818 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10
· range 3–3
Riverside maps to a single census tract in Atlanta, GA, population 1,818. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. 67% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Atlanta rate of 30.9%.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
At $1,437 a month, rents sit 16% under what the rest of Atlanta commands. SNAP participation is 4.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 7.3% of adults, 10.5 points below the national rate. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. That places it #67 of 77 neighborhoods in Atlanta.
Only 18% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
