1 census tracts · pop 4,333 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10
· range 3–3
The Grove maps to a single census tract in Milton, GA, population 4,333. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 48%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Milton rate of 23.3%. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.2/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 6.4% of adults, 11.4 points below the national rate.
That places it #2 of 7 neighborhoods in Milton. At 2% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
