Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West End
SNAP participation runs 42.6% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 41.5% against 17.8% nationally. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 77% 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. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 1.5 points above the Fulton County average of 4.2.
The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 992 filings here across 5 tracked years. 43% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Fulton County average of 46.8%.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
