Analysis
What drives eviction risk in The Battery Atlanta
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 8.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Smyrna eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Cobb County average of 5.5 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 634 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 27.6% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 27.6% of renter households in 2016.
The tract is Black and White and ranks around the 33rd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
