Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Oakengate
The score leans hardest on eviction process difficulty at $1/10. 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 Clarkston, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the DeKalb County average of 6.4 and in line with the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
In CDC survey modeling, about 16.4% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 9.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
The tract is Black and Asian and ranks around the 65th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
