Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lavender Hill

What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 10/10. At $2,028 a month, rents run 43% over what the rest of Simpsonville commands. The voucher gap is 55.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

It sits 1.1 points below the Greenville County average of 4.1. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Food insecurity runs 7.9% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 6.9% against 14.2% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.3/10. Statewide the SC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

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.
