Chattahoochee Heights Eviction Risk: Lower
3 census tracts · pop 5,688 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3–4.1
Chattahoochee Heights is a 3-tract neighborhood of Sandy Springs, GA, population 5,688. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Cost burden runs around a third against 28.0% citywide, putting Chattahoochee Heights 7.7% over its own city.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.8/10. At $1,463 a month, rents sit 22% under what the rest of Sandy Springs commands. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.1, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.5% of adults, 8.3 points below the national rate. That places it #3 of 13 neighborhoods in Sandy Springs.
Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
