Decatur Eviction Risk: Moderate

Disability prevalence runs 53.0% against 31.5% nationally. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 25.8% against 11.3% nationally. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2/10. The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 1.1 points above the Morgan County average of 3.5. Court records carry 324 eviction filings across 12 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2015, when 8.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 4.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 9.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
