The Old Home Place Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,077 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

The Old Home Place maps to a single census tract in North Myrtle Beach, SC, population 5,077. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.7/10.

Court records for this tract carry 209 eviction filings. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. 35% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

Average gross rent is $1,101, 13% below the North Myrtle Beach average of $1,263. SNAP participation is 6.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 18.9% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 8.9% in 2014, is well off that peak. That places it #2 of 5 neighborhoods in North Myrtle Beach. Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Ocean Creek Resort and Belle Park. Against average income of $68,852, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 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.
