Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Augusta

Average gross rent is $553, 52% below the Augusta average. SNAP participation runs 50.5% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against the Richmond County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 9.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. 52% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
