Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Greenville

29% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Mercer County average of 38.3%. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.

It sits 1.3 points above the Mercer County average of 4.0. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 153 filings here across 7 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2000, when 4.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 3.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 67% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $42,366, annual rent is just 16%.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
