Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Augusta eviction risk-Richmond County consolidated government (balance), while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Richmond County average of 5.8 and above the Georgia statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
