Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Clayton

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. Running cool, regional political climate reads 2.1/10.

10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 59 filings here across 3 tracked years. Against Rabun County at 36.4%, roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened.

At $931 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of Clayton commands. The worst year on record was 2003, when 7.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 5.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.2/10. It tracks the Rabun County average of 3.8 closely.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
