Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Goodale Place

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 8.6/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Augusta eviction risk-Richmond County consolidated government (balance), while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Richmond County average of 5.8 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 35.0% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 27.4% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

This tract overlaps land the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation redlined in the 1930s, a dominant grade of D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to Black, immigrant, and working-class blocks, and those areas still tend to carry higher rent burden and eviction filings today.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
