The Vista maps to a single census tract in Greenville, SC and houses 3,179 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.1/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 65%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
84% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Greenville rate of 30.1%. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Set annual rent against average household income of $31,888 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. On the high side is economic stress at 8.6/10.
Average gross rent is $1,040, 21% below the Greenville average of $1,312. Food insecurity affects 32.0% of adults, 14.2 points above the national rate.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 22.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
That places it #1 of 17 neighborhoods in Greenville. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 5.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
