Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Brookwood

Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. At $1,894 a month, rents run 11% over what the rest of Atlanta commands. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Atlanta. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #42,813 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 2.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 49% of renters. It tracks the Fulton County average of 4.2 closely. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $91,321.

58% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
