Baldwin Eviction Risk: Moderate

Running hot, housing-court posture reads 9.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.8/10.

At $815 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of Baldwin commands. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Cost burden runs around a third here against 35.3% across Habersham County. The filing record is not thin: 12 evictions over 1 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2004, when 6.2% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 6.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Habersham County average of 3.9 closely. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $52,824.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
