Spring Hills Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 9,715 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Spring Hills is a one-tract neighborhood of Boiling Springs, SC, population 9,715. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 18%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.3/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Cost burden runs 32% against 25.6% citywide, putting Spring Hills 5.9% over its own city.

At $1,030 a month, rents sit 19% under what the rest of Boiling Springs commands. Court records for this tract carry 150 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 19.8% of renter households. Judgments average 4.4% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
