Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Atlanta

Against Fulton County at 46.8%, 61% of renters here are cost-burdened. SNAP participation runs 35.2% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.7/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $45,540 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. 65% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. At $1,320 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Atlanta commands.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 21.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
