Dalton Eviction Risk: Moderate

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.8/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Adults with no health insurance runs 27.7% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. Cost burden runs 42% here against 35.7% across Whitfield County.

Against the Whitfield County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. Average gross rent is $811, 19% below the Dalton average.

Food insecurity runs 28.0% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
