Glenlea Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,076 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.5/10 · range 4.5–4.5

Glenlea maps to a single census tract in Berea, SC and houses 6,076 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Berea baseline of 33.9%, 23% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10. Running hot is housing-court posture at 8/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Berea, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. At 14% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Forest Ridge and August Brook score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $68,750, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,113, close to the Berea average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
