Coopers Bluff Eviction Risk: Moderate , Socastee

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.8/10.

At $962 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Socastee commands. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10.

The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The filing record is not thin: 345 evictions over 5 years of observation. Against the Horry County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.

Filings peaked in 2012 at 19.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 18.2% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #39,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $56,667. 25% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
