Oakbrook Forest is a one-tract neighborhood of Lawrenceville, GA and houses 3,675 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Lawrenceville baseline of 37.1%, 57% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Average gross rent is $2,213, 37% above the Lawrenceville average of $1,613. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.7/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 20.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
13% 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. That places it #15 of 17 neighborhoods in Lawrenceville.
At 5% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $105,920.
One tract means one number: 3.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
