Harbour Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,901 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Harbour Village maps to a single census tract in Garden City, SC, population 3,901. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.2/10.

Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.8/10. 15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.

The filing record is not thin: 248 evictions logged in this tract. Cost burden runs 24% against 19.9% citywide, putting Harbour Village 4.1% over its own city.

Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 21.1% of renter households. SNAP participation is 7.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

The most recent observed rate, 12.1% in 2014, is well off that peak. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Garden City, it ranks #3 by risk, the lower third.

At 28% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Waterford Oaks and Oceanside Village.

Average gross rent runs $1,545, close to the Garden City average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $72,821.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
