Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cane Brake

At $1,815 a month, rents run 52% over what the rest of Greer commands. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.6/10. The voucher gap is 39.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side, supply constraint reads 8.9/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10.

14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. SNAP participation runs 3.9% against 15.2% nationally.

Against the Greenville County average of 4.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3/10.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
