Tatumsville Eviction Risk: Moderate , Savannah

This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Set annual rent against average income of $45,830 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. SNAP participation runs 29.9% against 15.2% nationally. 56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Chatham County average of 46.6%.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2/10. Against the Chatham County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 154 filings here across 1 tracked years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 17.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
