Marion Street Area Historic District is a 4-tract neighborhood of Rock Hill, SC and houses 12,324 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, Moderate tier. Against a Rock Hill baseline of 32.0%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $29,805 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
26% 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. The poverty rate is 34%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. At $931 a month, rents sit 31% under what the rest of Rock Hill commands.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 27.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Court records carry 870 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 38.9% of renter households. That places it #1 of 9 neighborhoods in Rock Hill.
Judgments average 1.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
