Southbrook Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,050 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Southbrook Village is a one-tract neighborhood of Dalton, GA and houses 6,050 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Dalton rate of 28.1%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.1/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10.

Average gross rent is $1,299, 30% above the Dalton average of $996. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The voucher gap is 18.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. 18.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Only 18% 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. Against average income of $97,615, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
