Cedar Creek Eviction Risk: Moderate , Athens

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $54,654, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 8.6/10. The voucher gap is 20.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

At $1,479 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of Athens commands. 60% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Clarke County average of 54.5%. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 4.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Clarke County average of 5.9 closely. 65% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
