Marietta Eviction Risk: Moderate

95% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against Cobb County at 44.2%, 58% of renters here are cost-burdened.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $52,120 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. Against the Cobb County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.

Court records carry 314 eviction filings across 1 observed years. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.5% against 11.3% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 21.3% against 14.2% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 42.7% of renter households were served.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
