Greenville Eviction Risk: Moderate

Against Washington County at 44.2%, 30% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. At $576 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of Greenville commands.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10. The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. 70% 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. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 25.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 0.7 points above the Washington County average of 4.5. That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
