Highland Village Eviction Risk: Moderate , Stockbridge

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.9/10. 76% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Cost burden runs 56% here against 44.7% across Henry County. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 4,936 evictions over 13 years of observation.

It sits 0.6 points above the Henry County average of 4.1. Average gross rent is $1,343, 10% below the Stockbridge average. Filings peaked in 2009 at 71.1% of renter households.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $59,261.
