Legacy Haywood is a one-tract neighborhood of Greenville, SC, population 4,291. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 30.1% citywide, putting Legacy Haywood 15.8% over its own city.
99% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,414, 8% above the Greenville average of $1,312. Among the 17 mapped neighborhoods of Greenville, it ranks #7 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Twin Lake Cottages and Ridgeway Cottages score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $63,564.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 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.
