Scanlonville maps to a single census tract in Mount Pleasant, SC, population 5,422. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 14%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
33% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. SNAP participation is 2.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. At $1,894 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Mount Pleasant commands. That places it #1 of 6 neighborhoods in Mount Pleasant.
Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Bayview Acres and Mathis Ferry Court score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $155,707, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
