Eastwind Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,534 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.2/10 · range 4.2–4.2

Eastwind is a one-tract neighborhood of Valdosta, GA and houses 5,534 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10.

Against a Valdosta baseline of 34.6%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.1/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. Among the 14 mapped neighborhoods of Valdosta, it ranks #13 by risk, the lower third.

Only 17% 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. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Average gross rent runs $1,038, close to the Valdosta average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
