Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Troy
The voucher gap is 30.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Set annual rent against average income of $44,817 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Well under the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 1.6/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 33 filings here across 5 tracked years. Food insecurity runs 25.5% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 0.7 points below the Greenwood County average of 4.1.
The worst year on record was 2010, when 8.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 6.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
