Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gator Field

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.6/10. The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.6/10.

The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.7/10.

SNAP participation runs 27.4% against 15.2% nationally. It sits 1.1 points above the Beaufort County average of 4.0. At $1,209 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Hilton Head Island commands.

The filing record is not thin: 364 evictions over 5 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2012, when 9.6% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 8.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 9.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
