Waverly Station Eviction Risk: Moderate
1 census tracts · pop 5,478 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 5.8–5.8
Waverly Station maps to a single census tract in Greenwood, SC and houses 5,478 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 52% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Greenwood rate of 30.2%.
SNAP participation is 45.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 52.4% of adults, 34.6 points above the national rate. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.
Set annual rent against average household income of $20,598 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Severe burden reaches 27%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
79% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.5/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.8/10. At $670 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Greenwood commands.
The filing record is not thin: 2,515 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 44.1% of renter households.
One tract means one number: 5.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
