Charter Oaks Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 4,989 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.7/10 · range 6.7–6.7

Charter Oaks maps to a single census tract in Valdosta, GA and houses 4,989 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.7/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Against a Valdosta baseline of 34.6%, 51% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 33.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

This is a renter market: 85% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The poverty rate is 30%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.1/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10.

20.5% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $892 a month, rents sit 15% under what the rest of Valdosta commands. Among the 14 mapped neighborhoods of Valdosta, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

For a like-for-like read, Prescott and Provident score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $35,080.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
