Plantation Grove maps to a single census tract in Roebuck, SC and houses 2,129 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 14% against 30.4% citywide, putting Plantation Grove 16.9% under its own city.
The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. At $1,076 a month, rents sit 24% over what the rest of Roebuck commands. 14% 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.
Running cool is economic stress, at 2.6/10. SNAP participation is 6.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Roebuck, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. Only 21% 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.
For a like-for-like read, Lake Zimmerman and Ridgecrest Heights score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $84,453, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
