Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Court records carry 1,009 eviction filings across 5 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2001, when 30.9% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Atlanta.
