Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ashford Park

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.9/10. Disability prevalence runs 13.6% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.2/10.

19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Food insecurity runs 5.1% against 17.8% nationally.

It sits 1.4 points below the DeKalb County average of 4.5. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 165 filings here across 8 tracked years.

48% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the DeKalb County average of 52.2%. Filings peaked in 2014 at 2.6% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Atlanta. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 1.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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