Sedgefield Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,374 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Sedgefield maps to a single census tract in Centerville, GA and houses 5,374 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Against a Centerville baseline of 41.4%, 65% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10. At $1,030 a month, rents sit 21% under what the rest of Centerville commands.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

The filing record is not thin: 771 evictions logged in this tract. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.9/10.

The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 23.2% of renter households. Judgments average 10.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Against average income of $73,992, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 5.4/10 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.
