Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Greenville
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 9.8/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

In CDC survey modeling, about 20.3% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 14.5% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 6,061 eviction filings here over 14 tracked years, with about 38.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 25.6% of renter households in 2011.
