Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Parkwood

The heaviest input here is economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Chatham County average of 5.6 and below the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
