Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Simpsonville

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10. Cost burden runs about one in five here against 24.1% across Shelby County.

Average gross rent is $1,038, 10% above the Simpsonville average. That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $89,625, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Shelby County average of 3.8 closely.

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.
