Faber Place maps to a single census tract in Charleston, SC and houses 2,906 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.1/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,406, 18% below the Charleston average of $1,722.
Court records for this tract carry 889 eviction filings. 37% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Charleston rate of 32.7%.
SNAP participation is 4.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.7/10.
10% 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 worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 37.5% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate.
The most recent observed rate, 20.7% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 23 mapped neighborhoods of Charleston, it ranks #16 by risk, the lower third.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
