Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Augusta

The severe-burden share is 29%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.4/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.7/10.

Average gross rent is $664, 23% below the Augusta average. SNAP participation runs 4.0% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 8.0% against 17.8% nationally.

It sits 0.7 points below the Butler County average of 3.7. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 7% of average household income of $106,786, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

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