Rockbrook Eviction Risk: Lower , Augusta

Average gross rent is $675, 41% below the Augusta average. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.2/10. Cost burden runs 42% here against 51.1% across Richmond County.

Against the Richmond County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. The filing record is not thin: 463 evictions over 9 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2004, when 7.8% of renter households were served. 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.

In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $69,507, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

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