Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Griffin

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.6/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.1/10.

Cost burden runs 45% here against 36.8% across Spalding County. It sits 1.1 points below the Spalding County average of 4.5.

The filing record is not thin: 353 evictions over 6 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2004, when 23.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 14.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10. Against average income of $80,833, annual rent is just 17%.

Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.8 points cooler. Average gross rent is $1,124, close to the Griffin average.

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.
