Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Glenwood Hills
The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 8.8/10. 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 Candler-McAfee eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the DeKalb County average of 6.4 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
HOLC surveyors mapped this tract in the 1930s with a dominant grade of C ("Declining"), above the redlined D tier. The grading still shaped decades of lending and development in the surrounding area.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,973 eviction filings here over 8 tracked years, with about 36.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 42.5% of renter households in 2007.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
