Cabbagetown Eviction Risk: Lower , Atlanta

This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Average gross rent is $2,143, 25% above the Atlanta average. Disability prevalence runs 18.0% against 31.5% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 5.2% against 15.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 17.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Court records carry 539 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 36.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

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