It sits 1.6 points above the Pike County average of 3.8. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 3.1/10.

Only 8% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.3/10.
