Winder Eviction Risk: Lower

Against Barrow County at 43.9%, 75% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 3 years of observation.

SNAP participation runs 7.3% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2003, when 40.4% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 26.3% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 9% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $89,958, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
