Prichard Eviction Risk: Moderate

What moves this score most is housing court bias at 8.9/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Prichard eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Mobile County average of 4.9 and above the Alabama statewide average of 4.5. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 139 eviction filings here over 10 tracked years, with about 3.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 4.6% of renter households in 2006.

In CDC survey modeling, about 28.6% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 22.5% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
