McNair Terrace Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,825 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

McNair Terrace is a one-tract neighborhood of Augusta, GA, population 2,825. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 100% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

At $1,606 a month, rents sit 41% over what the rest of Augusta commands. The voucher gap is 36.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 45% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Augusta rate of 32.9%.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.2/10. Running hot is supply constraint at 8.7/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. Among the 30 mapped neighborhoods of Augusta, it ranks #24 by risk, the lower third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Windsor Court and Rockbrook. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $72,650.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
