Gordonston Eviction Risk: Moderate , Savannah

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. Average gross rent is $1,157, 16% below the Savannah average.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 49 filings here across 1 tracked years. SNAP participation runs 22.5% against 15.2% nationally.

Against the Chatham County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2011 at 13.6% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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.

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.
