Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Union City

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.7/10. 68% 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. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.5/10.

55% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Fulton County average of 46.8%. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 26.4% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 22.3% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,188 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Union City commands. On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 7.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Fulton County average of 4.2 closely. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $53,311.

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