Ashton Glenn Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,852 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.7/10 · range 3.7–3.7

Ashton Glenn maps to a single census tract in Surfside Beach, SC and houses 3,852 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.7/10, in the Lower tier. 31% 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.

Against a Surfside Beach baseline of 30.1%, 40% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 530 evictions logged in this tract.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. SNAP participation is 5.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 19.1% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,146, 10% below the Surfside Beach average of $1,274. Recent filings have not receded much: 14.3% in 2014 against a 19.1% peak.

Only 24% 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. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $64,690.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
