Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Brownswood Place

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.1/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Average gross rent is $1,445, 16% below the Charleston average. SNAP participation runs 7.7% against 15.2% nationally.

That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 19% 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. Social vulnerability reads 2.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $126,695, annual rent is just 14%. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Charleston County average of 3.7 closely.

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