Shelter Cove Eviction Risk: Lower , Hilton Head Island

Average gross rent is $2,397, 62% above the Hilton Head Island average. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10.

The voucher gap is 31.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.7/10. Food insecurity runs 5.3% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 4.0% against 14.2% nationally.

It sits 1.0 points below the Beaufort County average of 4.0. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 24 filings here across 5 tracked years.

The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The worst year on record was 2011, when 1.9% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.8/10, 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.
