Woodlake is a one-tract neighborhood of Gainesville, GA, population 3,051. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Gainesville rate of 34.5%.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. Severe burden reaches 26%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.
On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.9/10. Among the 21 mapped neighborhoods of Gainesville, it ranks #8 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Shamrock Heights and Rainbow Village.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. 54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
