Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Forrester Heights
The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at $1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Mauldin eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Greenville County average of 5.6 and below the South Carolina statewide average of 5.5. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.15x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, roughly back to the pre-pandemic baseline.
The tract is racially mixed and ranks around the 46th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
