Jerusalem Heights Eviction Risk: Lower , Tuscaloosa

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.1 points below the Tuscaloosa County average of 4.1. The filing record is not thin: 230 evictions over 6 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 6.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the AL average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 43% of renters. Average gross rent is $1,061, close to the Tuscaloosa average. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $66,979.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
