Pebble Brook maps to a single census tract in Buford, GA, population 5,431. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.6/10.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. 22.5% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
about a quarter of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, under the Buford rate of 32.8%. Court records for this tract carry 490 eviction filings. 11% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
The worst year on record was 2009, when filings touched 16.0% of renter households. Running cool is economic stress, at 3/10. Average gross rent is $1,202, 11% below the Buford average of $1,357.
Food insecurity affects 26.1% of adults, 8.3 points above the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 5.9% in 2016, is well off that peak. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 4.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
