Gaines Court Eviction Risk: Lower , Augusta

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.6/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.2/10. At $1,427 a month, rents run 25% over what the rest of Augusta commands.

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The voucher gap is 21.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

It sits 1.0 points below the Richmond County average of 4.0. SNAP participation runs 6.5% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.2% against 17.8% nationally.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
