Anchor Village maps to a single census tract in Southern Shops, SC and houses 2,942 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 10/10.
The poverty rate is 59%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 35% 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.
Food insecurity affects 51.1% of adults, 33.3 points above the national rate. 26.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10.
Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Cost burden runs 41% against 32.2% citywide, putting Anchor Village 8.9% over its own city.
Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 8.4/10. At $972 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Southern Shops commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
