South Springs maps to a single census tract in Warner Robins, GA, population 7,159. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. 29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
17% 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. The filing record is not thin: 202 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 6.9% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 4.4% in 2015 against a 6.9% peak. That places it #11 of 18 neighborhoods in Warner Robins.
Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $102,831, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $1,177, close to the Warner Robins average.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
