Harbour Towne maps to a single census tract in Socastee, SC and houses 4,833 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.6/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Socastee baseline of 27.2%, 53% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 37%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10.
22.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.
Court records for this tract carry 521 eviction filings. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,057, 15% below the Socastee average of $1,246. The poverty rate is 16%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 17.4% of renter households. That places it #2 of 6 neighborhoods in Socastee.
Judgments average 7.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
