Stonegate Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,581 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

Stonegate is a one-tract neighborhood of Fountain Inn, SC, population 2,581. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.

Against a Fountain Inn baseline of 30.6%, 23% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. 18% 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.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,389, 17% above the Fountain Inn average of $1,184. SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Only 6% 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. Against average income of $95,404, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

One tract means one number: 3.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
