The Villages of Town Creek is a one-tract neighborhood of Pendleton, SC and houses 4,667 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 27.3% citywide, putting The Villages of Town Creek 19.0% over its own city.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. 27% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The voucher gap is 26.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10.
At $1,201 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Pendleton commands. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $71,085. 34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
