Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Riverside Hills
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.
Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $30,364, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.4/10.
The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $829 a month, rents run 22% under what the rest of Macon-Bibb County commands.
Against Bibb County at 51.4%, 56% of renters here are cost-burdened. The filing record is not thin: 955 evictions over 8 years of observation.
Against the Bibb County average of 4.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points. Filings peaked in 2004 at 21.6% of renter households.
This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Macon. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 17.0% of renter households face a filing.
